ISIS Claims Responsibility For Attack On Sports Club In Kabul

ISIS has now claimed responsibility for Thursday's attack on the Millat Sports Club in the Dashte Barchi area of Kabul.

The group wrote on its Telegram channel that they had planted the bomb at the place where "Shiites" were gathering.

The Taliban had earlier said that four people were killed and seven people were injured in the attack.

However, on the day of the attack, local sources reported that the death toll of the attack reached six people.

In recent years, the Millat Sports Club had been operating under the supervision of Mohammad Rahim Afzali in the Poole Khoshk area of Dashte Barchi area in Kabul.

Earlier, Afghanistan’s Freedom Front condemned this attack and, in a statement, attributed the planning and implementation of this attack and explosion at the Imam Zaman Mosque in Pul-e Khumri city, to a group of "domestic and foreign terrorists who are directly funded, equipped and supported by the Haqqani Network.”

The ISIS group has consistently claimed responsibility for numerous attacks in areas where Hazaras live in Kabul and various other cities in Afghanistan.
