Dozens Killed in Afghan Mosque Attack

Dozens of worshippers were gathered inside a mosque in eastern Afghanistan to offer Friday prayers when a mortar round fired by insurgents blasted through the roof, causing it to collapse and killing at least 25 people, provincial officials said on Friday. Zahir Adil, spokesperson for the public health department in Nangarhar Province, said around 50 others were wounded in the attack in the Haskamena district. He said 23 of the 50 wounded were transferred to Jalalabad, the provincial capital, and the rest of were being treated in the district clinic. No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, but both the Taliban and the Islamic State group are active in eastern Afghanistan, especially Nangarhar province. The violence comes a day after a United Nations report said that Afghan civilians are dying in record numbers in the country's increasingly brutal war, noting that more civilians died in July than in any previous one-month period since the UN began keeping statistics. The report said 2,563 civilians were killed and 5,676 were wounded in the first nine months of this year.
