ISIL claimed responsibility for two recent terrorist attacks in Kabul

ISIL claimed responsibility for the recent terrorist attacks on Sardar Davood Khan’s military hospital by issuing a statement on its telegram page.

The group said in a statement that five members of the group had taken part in the attack, and that one of them had detonated his explosive belt before others could enter the hospital to allow others to enter.

Two explosions yesterday, one at the entrance to Sardar Dawood Khan Hospital and the other near it, reportedly killed at least 25 people and injured dozens more.

However, the Bakhtar state news agency blamed ISIS for the blasts and reported that one of the group blew himself up at the entrance to the hospital, prompting several others to enter the hospital and clash with Taliban forces.

Bilal Karimi, the Taliban’s deputy spokesman, also confirmed the incident, saying that the first blast occurred at the entrance to the hospital and the second blast took place near it.
