Victims of double blast rushed to Kabul hospital

(30 Apr 2018) A Kabul police spokesman raised the casualty toll from the double suicide attacks in the Afghan capital on Monday to 25 killed and at least 45 wounded. The spokesman, Hashmat Stanekzai, said that along with two journalists killed in the bombings - an AFP photographer and a cameraman for the local Tolo TV station - four policemen were also among those killed. Stanekzai said the first suicide bomber was on a motorbike while the second attacker was among the crowd of reporters that rushed to the scene of the first attack, pretending to be one of the media. He added that the second attacker then detonated his explosives while still among the reporters. No one has claimed responsibility for the attack, but both Taliban and Islamic State group are active and have repeatedly claimed attacks in Kabul.
