Suicide Bombing at Kabul Ministry Compound

Security Threats Persist in Afghanistan Amid Kabul Ministry Bombing

An explosion at the Ministry of Urban Development and Housing compound in Kabul on Wednesday resulted in the death of one person and injuries to three others, according to ministry spokesperson Mohammad Kamal Afghan. The incident occurred when a man attempted to carry out an attack inside the compound but was neutralized by security guards before reaching his target. The exact source of the blast remains under investigation, and no group has yet claimed responsibility.

This attack follows a suicide bombing near a bank in Kunduz province on Tuesday, which killed at least five people and injured seven others. The Islamic State group later claimed responsibility for that attack, though they reported higher casualty figures.

These incidents highlight the ongoing security challenges in Afghanistan, where militant groups continue to pose significant threats despite efforts by the Taliban government to maintain stability.
