At least 13 adults and children were killed this afternoon in an explosion outside Kabul airport. According to the latest reports coming out of Afghanistan, the explosion is understood to have been detonated by a suicide bomber in a sewage canal where Afghan refugees were having their visa documents vetted close to the Abbey Gate near to the Baron Hotel where UK and US forces are stationed. The casualties are believed to be Afghan but members of the Taliban are also thought to have been injured. So far there are no known international military forces involved. The attack is understood to have come from an extremist group, Daesh or IS-K.
