Afghan police officers keep watch at a car bomb attack site in Kabul, Afghanistan. (Reuters) Afghan police officers keep watch at a car bomb attack site in Kabul, Afghanistan. The Taliban claimed responsibility for the suicide blast, a week after they claimed an attack on the Intercontinental Hotel in which more than 20 people were killed. Hours after the blast, a health ministry spokesman said the casualty toll had risen to at least 95 killed and 158 wounded. “I was sitting in the office when the explosion went off,” said Alam, an office worker whose head was badly cut in the blast.
