Damage of the Dubai City wedding hall is seen after an explosion in Kabul, Afghanistan, Sunday, Aug. 18, 2019. A suicide-bomb blast ripped through a wedding party on a busy Saturday night.
The Taliban condemned the attack as “forbidden and unjustifiable” and denied any involvement. Both the Taliban and IS have carried large-scale attacks in the Afghan capital in the past. The bomber detonated his explosives near the stage where musicians were playing and “all the youths, children and all the people who were there were killed,” said eyewitness Gul Mohammad.
“Devastated by the news of a suicide attack inside a wedding hall in Kabul. A heinous crime against our people; how is it possible to train a human and ask him to go and blow himself inside a wedding?!!” presidential spokesman Sediq Seddiqi said in a Twitter post. Saturday night’s explosion came a few days after the end of the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Adha, with Kabul residents visiting family and friends, and just ahead of Afghanistan’s 100th Independence Day on Monday. The city, long familiar with checkpoints and razor wire, has been under heavier security ahead of the event.
Murderous US in action, the CIA doesn't want to lose its poppies fields, ready to blow up new weds for that. Sick Nation. And you are just a propaganda agency of a fascist country

The Islamic State terrorists group uses bombs. The USA White Supremist terrorists uses guns.
There's that 'religion of peace ' again
JenGriffinFNC Well then, obviously the sooner we declare victory and withdraw, the better for all concerned, eh Jenn?
JenGriffinFNC People are just so evil. Hard to even imagine planting explosives at a wedding
Still waiting for Trump's secret 30 day plan to destroy ISIS.
On and on. I keep thinking of rational solutions, then another atrocity happens and reminds me rational solutions don’t work when dealing with religion.
Huh...?
Wait, I thought our “fearless leader” destroyed the Islamic State.
But wasnt ISIS defeated, dead
But Islam is a religion of peace!
I do wonder... Who was the insider or provided info of when or how the wedding happened. It would be total despair if it's a relative or friend who sold the info of to ISIS.
Send Justine Trudeau he knows how to deal with this sort of thing
Indian agencies are doing this because India got kicked out of the Afghan peace process
dreynders MajaEUspox mofa_belgium Samsunglevant SAMSUNG BREAKING: The Islamic State group's affiliate in Afghanistan claims responsibility for Kabul wedding blast that killed 63+
Sighing, shaking my head.
JonLemire Heart breaking. 😭
These people and their religious fervor are batshit insane. maybe instead of worrying about whatever made up guy in the sky thinks work in enjoying the gift of existence. Other nations in that region, India a prime example, have it down pat.
We’re WINNING, right?
All they did was kill 63 people. They will now be hunted like the dogs they are. For what? Those people who were killed were celebrating Life Love Happiness by joining in a Union as Family and Friends. The animals who killed walk with Hate,Jealousy and Ignorance. Sad individuals
So they wrote a note to the authorities saying they did it? Every time they say ..oh this group did this or that, where is the proof? My theory is... y'all don't know!
ISIS is helping Talibans to look them better. This of course helps in their theatrical talks going on since years...
They must be very proud of themselves. 😞
But I thought.... Trump said.... oh forget it
Daesh
So sad 😢
reminder that the afghan government actually aided these terrorists with airstrikes to save them from the taliban.
Imagine how demented you must be to think God would approve.
I just watched the movie London Falling. I think that was the name and how the movie started. Great movie. Sad in real life though
Bloodthirsty
That good old religion of peace.
