VOA: Taliban, IS Claim Deadly Attacks Across Afghanistan
ISLAMABAD — A series of suicide bombings and militant raids in Afghanistan has killed dozens of people, a day after construction work on the much-awaited Afghan section of an international gas pipeline began.
An Afghan Interior Ministry spokesman said a suicide bomber Saturday blew himself up near a security post in Kabul, killing at least three people and wounding several others.
The Islamic State terrorist group claimed it plotted the violence in the capital city.
Officials said the deadliest of the several attacks occurred in western Farah province, where Taliban insurgents in a pre-dawn assault killed at least 20 government forces before capturing their base in Bala Baluk
district.
Separately, two early morning suicide bombings targeted Afghan forces in the troubled Helmand province.
