KABUL, Afghanistan—A bomb exploded near a checkpoint at Kabul’s military airport Sunday morning killing and wounding “several” people, Taliban said, the first deadly blast of 2023 in Afghanistan.
No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, but the regional affiliate of the ISIS terrorist group—known as ISIS in Khorasan Province—has increased its attacks since the Taliban terrorist group’s takeover in 2021. Targets have included Taliban patrols and members of Afghanistan’s Shiite minority.
