As violence continues in the capitol of Afghanistan Kabul, there seems to be no end in sight in one of the most violent cities in the world, and IS will continue its fight against the Taliban. The fighting between the two Afghan factions, is a direct result of the U.S. withdrawal of Afghanistan, and its willingness to leave the country in the dubious hands of a terror group. The Associated Press has the story:
City residents had reported two explosions in the area of the hospital in Kabul’s 10th district
KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — An explosion went off Tuesday at the entrance of a military hospital in Kabul, killing three people and wounding at least 16, health officials said.
The blast went off at the entrance to the Sardar Mohammad Dawood Khan military hospital, the spokesman of the Taliban-run Interior Ministry, Saeed Khosty, wrote in a tweet. He added that special forces were at the scene.
City residents had reported two explosions in the area, of the hospital in Kabul’s 10th district, along with the sound of gunfire.
Later Tuesday, Sayed Abdullah Ahmadi, the director of the nearby Wazir Akbar Khan hospital, said his facility had received three bodies and seven people who were injured in the blast.
Another nine injured were taken to the Afghanistan Emergency Hospital.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack. In recent weeks, the militant Islamic State group has carried out a series of bombing and shooting attacks. The Islamic State is a rival of the Taliban and has stepped up attacks since the Taliban took control of Afghanistan in a swift military campaign in August.
