A suicide bomber has attacked a school in the Afghan capital of Kabul killing at least 19 people and injuring as many as 27.The blast occurred early Friday, September 30 in the Dasht-e-Barchi neighborhood of western Kabul, a predominantly Shia Muslim area, according to Afghanistan police spokesman, Khalid Zadran.
“Students were preparing for an exam when a suicide bomber struck at this educational centre. Unfortunately, 19 people have been martyred and 27 others wounded,” he said. n Videos posted online and photos published by local media showed bloodied victims being carried away from the scene.This short clip on Hazara students is said to be from a few days ago in Kaj educational centre. Today, dozens of them have lost their lives in the suicide attack at the same place, at a school in the Hazara dominated area of western Kabul. #StopHazaraGenocide pic.twitter.com/h6q96qUum9— Reza Rahimi (@rezarvhimi) September 30, 2022 #UPDATES Attack on #KAj education school .
