Afghanistan: Multiple Blast in Kabul’s School Killed Six, Injured eleven
New Delhi: The Kabul Police on Tuesday confirmed that at least three blasts rocked a boys’ school in the capital Kabul. Six people have been killed and dozens injured in this incident.
Kabul police spokesman Khalid Zadran said on Twitter that “the blasts happened at the Abdul Rahim Shahid high school and caused casualties among our Shiite brothers.”
The incident apparently took place when the students were leaving their classes.
According to a media report, “The blast occurred in the main exit of Abdul Rahim Shahid School where crowds of students were there, one teacher told me who surprisingly escaped the attack. Fear of high casualties.”
“The Ministry of Interior confirmed the blast and stated that an investigation has started into the incident and details will be shared later,” said a local media.
No one has claimed responsibility for the attack immediately. After taking over Afghanistan last year in August, the Taliban have claimed that they have secured the country. However, international officials and analysts say that the risk of a resurgence in militancy remains. Also, the Islamic State militant group has claimed several major attacks.
