- 9 years ago
A Taliban suicide bomber rammed an explosive-packed Toyota Corolla into a Turkish diplomatic vehicle in Kabul, Afghanistan early morning Thursday, killing at least two people and wounding one, according to Afghan Deputy Interior Minister Ayub Salangi.
The blast occurred just outside the gates of the Iranian embassy, which is adjacent to the Turkish embassy.
A Turkish national and an Afghan passer-by we killed, police said.
The Taliban claimed responsibility via a text message to the media, claiming the target was a convoy of foreigners.
This is the second suicide attack on diplomatic vehicles in Kabul in recent months. it is the first incident, however, involving a Turkish target. A British embassy vehicle was attacked by a suicide bomber in November.
