Kabul(July 24, 2017): A powerful car bomb exploded in the morning rush hour in a western neighborhood of Kabul, killing at least 20 and wounding 24 people.
Interior Ministry spokesman Najib Danish said the explosion early Monday morning was a suicide car bomb but he couldn’t immediately say whether there were further casualties.
However, according to Afghan Media suicide car-bomb blast occurred near residential place of Vice-CEO Muhammad Mohaqeq.
The area has been the scene of several attacks including the suicide attack that killed prominent Shiite Muslim cleric Ramazan Hussainzada last month.
Hussainzada was also a senior leader of Afghanistan’s Hazara community. However, no group has claimed responsibility for the attack yet.
