Blast in Afghanistan:Two killed in blast near mosque in Kabul, targeting prayer meeting held on death of Taliban spokesman's mother

 

The blast on Kabul's Idgah mosque was so strong that smoke was visible far after the blast.

The situation in Afghanistan does not seem to be returning to normal. After the departure of America, there is a Taliban rule in the country, but even after this, terrorist incidents are not decreasing. On Sunday, a massive explosion took place near Kabul's Idgah mosque, killing two and injuring three.

Crowds present at a gathering organized for the death of the mother of Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid.

The incident of the blast has been confirmed by Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid. Prayers were to be made on the death of Mujahid's mother near the mosque. The terrorists have targeted this prayer meeting itself. Mujahid's mother passed away a few days back. The Islamic State (Khorasan) is being suspected of carrying out this attack.

The man who ran the shop near the mosque told AFP that there was firing after the blast. Shortly before the incident, Taliban fighters blocked the road. The injured have been admitted to the emergency hospital in the city-e-Nav area. The hospital has issued a statement saying that 4 patients were brought for treatment.
