On January 27, in the heart of Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan, the remains of the victims were lifted off the scene of the explosion.
The Afghan Ministry of Public Health said on the 27th that the death toll from a suicide car bomb attack in the capital city of Kabul on the same day had risen to 95 and 163 others were wounded.
A public health spokesman Wahid Mugruh said the attack took place at about 12:50 on the 27th. The attack was located in a relatively concentrated section of the capital's downtown area. At the time, the attackers drove a dynamite loaded with explosives to detonate the bomb inside the vehicle.
Wahid Mugrukh said that most of the casualties caused by the attack were civilians, some of whom were in serious condition.
The Taliban in Afghanistan has declared that the attack was made.
Witnesses said that after the explosion, they could see the thick smoke rising over the scene of the explosion. In addition to casualties, buildings near the site of the explosion have also been damaged to varying degrees. The main traffic route leading to the site of the attack has been blocked by the police after the explosion.
The reporter learned from the Chinese embassy in Afghanistan that there are currently no reports of casualties of Chinese citizens in this attack. On the same day, the embassy also released a message reminding Chinese citizens in Hong Kong to keep safety first and avoid visiting crowded areas in the near future.
Afghan President Ghani strongly condemned the attacks on the same day, saying that extremist groups do not want to see peace and stability in Afghanistan, but extremist organizations are going to failure. Abdullah, chief executive of Afghanistan, called for the solidarity of the entire nation at this time to cope with the difficulties. He said it is imperative that assistance be given to the injured in the explosion as soon as possible.
This is the second major attack that the Taliban in Afghanistan built this month in Kabul, the capital. On January 20, the group attacked the Intercontinental Hotel in Kabul, killing more than 20 people.
