    World leaders condemn deadly attack in Kabul – al Jazeera /  May 31 2017

    World leaders have offered sweeping condemnations of “one of the biggest” attacks to hit Afghanistan‘s capital, Kabul.

    The suicide bomb blast early on Wednesday killed at least 80 people and wounded hundreds near Zanbaq Square in Kabul’s 10th district, close to shops and restaurants as well as government offices and foreign embassies.

    There was no immediate claim of responsibility. Zabihullah Mujahid, a spokesman for the Taliban, told Al Jazeera that the group was not involved in the attack

    Afghan President Ashraf Ghani strongly condemned the attack, which came just days into the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.

    A statement from his office quoted Ghani as saying that “the terrorists, even in the holy month of Ramadan, the month of goodness, blessing and prayer, are not stopping the killing of our innocent people”.
