The Islamic State (IS) claimed responsibility for a suicide attack in Kabul that had targeted Taliban prosecutor's offices, resulting in at least six deaths and 13 injuries.
The attack is part of a larger pattern of violence from the Sunni-led Islamic State-Khorasan (IS-K), which has been actively targeting the Taliban since their takeover.
Witness statements indicated a much higher death toll, aligning with Amaq's claim of 'more than 45' casualties in the Kabul attack, underscoring the brutality of IS operations.
Since the Taliban's return to power in August 2021, IS-K has systematically attacked Taliban officials, foreign nationals, and the Hazara community, demonstrating a persistent threat in Afghanistan.
