Khalilzad Is A Private Citizen & Doesn’t Represent US government, Says US State Department

UNAMA also asked the Taliban to ensure Wesa remains in touch with his family and has access to a lawyer.

Wesa had been detained on Monday in district five of Kabul.

At the same time, Nader Naderi, the former director of Afghanistan Administrative Reforms Commission, said that the two brothers of Wesa, have also been arrested and his house is under siege.

Naderi added that Wesa's mother has been insulted and the Taliban have confiscated mobile phones and the computer of the detained activist.

The arrest of Wesa, who is an education activist, has been met with widespread reactions from human rights activists.

The Taliban had confirmed that six civilians had been killed and 12 others had been injured in the attack.

However, employees of the foreign ministry had confirmed the death of their two colleagues.

This is the second ISIS attack on the Taliban Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the last three months. In the previous attack, at least 20 people had been killed.

ISIS announced that the suicide bomber was Abdul Hamid Khorasani. According to the group, he was able to pass the security barriers of the Taliban and wage the suicide attack.

It seems that the Monday attack was carried out in response to the Taliban's operation against ISIS in Balkh province.

The Taliban intelligence officials had announced on Sunday that the group had killed "three important members" of ISIS in Balkh province.

According to the Taliban, Mawlawi Ziauddin, the previous governor of Khorasan and second in command of Islamic State-Khorasan; Abu Omar Afridi, a member of the Islamic State-Khorasan, and Ustad Salman Tajikstani, a military training specialist of ISIS, had been killed in the Balkh operation.

The detained students have been in detention at the Al Ghadir refugee camp.

According to Haalvsh, "Every year, after the end of the school year in religious schools, Afghan immigrant students return to Afghanistan through the Department of Citizens and Immigrant Affairs. This process takes two to three days, but this year, most of the students who contacted this department, have been detained at the Al Ghadir camp.”

According to Haalvsh, "The security officers told the students that they must admit that they were part of the protesters in Zahedan province."

Takor added that a suicide bomber had been shot dead by the Taliban forces before he reached his target. However, the bomber’s explosives blew up.

Takor confirmed that at least three Taliban forces have been wounded in the explosion too.

Earlier, the Emergency hospital had announced that so far at least two people had died and 12 injured had been transferred to the hospital after the explosion on Monday.

According to the Emergency hospital, one of the wounded was a child.

Witnesses said that the explosion took place when employees of the Taliban government had left their offices on Monday afternoon in Kabul.

No group has claimed responsibility for this explosion yet.

The Taliban disrupted a peaceful demonstration of women in western Kabul on Sunday and arrested at least three protesters.

A group of women and girls held a demonstration against the Taliban's policies in Dashte Barchi area of Kabul on Sunday.

According to the sources, the protesters wanted to continue their march toward the center of the city, but the Taliban prevented them by using violence and arresting three of the demonstrators.
