Amid growing concerns about ISIS’ activities in the region, Lindsey Graham a US senator has called for strikes against this group's positions in Afghanistan.

Graham stated that the US must firmly hit ISIS-Khorasan targets in Afghanistan and disrupt their operations before it's too late.

Despite the Taliban's claims of suppressing ISIS in Afghanistan, the group continues its attacks against civilians and Taliban forces.

In the latest attack, ISIS claimed responsibility for an explosion in front of Kabul Bank in the city of Kandahar, which left at least 21 dead and 50 injured.

Central Asian countries have also consistently expressed concerns about the rise in ISIS activities in Afghanistan and its infiltration into other regional countries.

The United Nations Security Council assessed in February that ISIS remains a threat to Afghanistan and the region.

According to the report, ISIS targets in Afghanistan primarily include Shiites, followed by the Taliban, and then civilians.

The Security Council noted that there is a difference of opinion among the Taliban leadership regarding how to deal with ISIS and the "Salafists".

After ISIS-Khorasan claimed responsibility for a recent attack on a concert hall in Moscow, concerns about the group's increasing activities in the region have escalated.

Several political opponents of the Taliban have responded to the attack by stating that Afghanistan under Taliban control poses a threat to the region and serves as a haven for terrorist groups.
