The Islamic State (IS) claimed responsibility for a September 2 attack in Kabul targeting Taliban government prosecution offices, resulting in at least six deaths and numerous injuries.
According to IS's Amaq media, the attack was a suicide bombing coordinated to coincide with prosecutor's employees leaving their shifts, illustrating IS's tactical planning.
Witnesses reported a higher casualty count than officially reported, with IS claiming that 'more than 45' people were killed or wounded, raising concerns about accuracy.
IS-K, the Sunni-led branch, continues its pattern of violent attacks against the Taliban and other groups, as seen in this recent targeting of government and Shi'ite Hazara individuals.
