BEIRUT (APP/AFP): The Islamic State jihadist group claimed responsibility for a suicide bombing and gun attack Friday on a Shiite mosque in the Afghan capital Kabul that left at least two dead, its propaganda agency announced.
"Two 'inghimasi' of the Islamic State carried out an attack on a husseiniya (Shiite place of worship) in the Khair Khana sector of the Afghan city of Kabul," Amaq said, using the terms for suicide bombers who set off explosive vests as a last resort against gunfire.
