Afghan President Ashraf Ghani condemned the attack and issued a statement.

Ghani said “terror, horror and crime” was not a solution to Afghanistan’s problem.

It should be mention here that in recent months many government officials, journalists, and activists have been targeted, spreading terror especially in the capital Kabul.

Due to the rising violence in Afghanistan, US-brokered talks have been badly disturbed, taking place in Doha as Washington withdraws troops.
