At least one killed, six injured in Afghan suicide bomb attack in Kabul

At least one person was killed and six were injured in a suicide bomb attack at Kabul police headquarters in Afghanistan today.

According to the Daily Mail, the suicide bomber walked into the office and detonated his explosives wherein a senior aide was killed in the blast.

Kabul police chief Zahir Zahir said that the attacker came in wearing police uniform and had evaded checkpoints at the force's heavily guarded headquarters.

He said that he was fine but his chief of staff Yassin Khan was killed and six were injured.

The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack.

The Taliban launched several offensives recently during a prolonged political crisis wherein President Ashraf Ghani and his rival Abdullah Abdullah both claimed to have won the fraud-mired presidential elections.
