Calling it cowardly, the Congress party on Wednesday condemned the Kabul attack, in which at least 80 people were killed and more than 300 injured.

"Condemn the cowardly Kabul attack. Global community should unite to bring perpetrators, organisers and sponsors of terror to book," said Congress spokesperson Randeep Singh Surjewala in a tweet.

At least 80 people were killed and over nearly 350 injured, many critically, when a truck packed with explosives blew up during morning rush hour in the Afghan capital's diplomatic zone earlier in the day, authorities said.
