Afghanistan: 21 people were killed and over 90 wounded in Logar truck bomb explosion

The deadly truck bomb attack that targeted a guest house in Logar province on Friday evening was widely condemned as a crime against humanity and a terrorist attack against the people of Afghanistan.

The Presidential Palace said the “terrorist attack” targeted “innocent people” including students who were seeking to attend university entrance exams in the province.

Calling it a crime against humanity, the Afghan government blamed the Taliban for the bombing. The group has not commented on the attack so far.
