A Suicide bombing on Saturday killed at least 95 people and injured 158 others in the center of Afghanistan’s capital, Kabul, in an attack that has been claimed by Taliban.
The attacker is reported to have driven in an ambulance past a police checkpoint in a secure zone, home to government offices and foreign embassies.
Reports indicate that they told the police they were transferring a patient to a hospital in the vicinity.
The target was reportedly an interior ministry building, though most of those killed were pedestrians.
The attack is the Taliban’s deadliest in recent months.
The group carried out another attack a week ago, killing 22 people in a luxury hotel in Kabul.
Witnesses say the area that was hit was packed with multiple people.
The force of the explosion shook windows of buildings at least two kilometres away and caused some low-rise structures in the immediate vicinity to collapse.
Rescue operations are on-going, with fears that the death toll could rise even further.
