A bombing at a mosque in the Afghan capital of Kabul during evening prayers on Wednesday killed at least 10 people, including a prominent cleric, and wounded at least 27, an eyewitness and police said.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack, the latest to strike the country in the year since the Taliban seized power. Several children were reported to be among the wounded.

According to the eyewitness, a resident of the city’s Kher Khanna neighborhood where the Siddiquiya Mosque was targeted, the explosion was carried out by a suicide bomber. The slain cleric was Mullah Amir Mohammad Kabuli, the eyewitness said, speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to the media.He added that more than 30 other people were wounded.

A U.S.-led invasion toppled the previous Taliban government, which had hosted al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan, following the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in the United States.

My question here is that: Is Talibans not a terrorist group?

No one has claimed responsibility for the attack, though the Islamic State group’s affiliate in Afghanistan has been blamed for a series of similar assaults.

Is there really a day that goes without some form of explosion being reported in Afghanistan?

We use to believe that it was Taliban who were killing afghans now who is killing afghans again

Shame, that. Thoughts and prayers.
