Blast at Mosque in Mazar-i-Sharif in Afghanistan, 16 killed And Many Wounded

At least 16 people have been killed in bomb attacks in two Afghan cities, including 12 people at a Shia mosque in Mazar-i-Sharif in Balkh province which has been claimed by the ISIL (ISIS) group. Twelve people were killed and 58 wounded – including 32 in serious condition – by the blast on Thursday at the Seh Dokan mosque in Mazar-i-Sharif.“Blood and fear are everywhere,” said Ahmad Zia Zindani, a spokesman for the Balkh provincial public health department. “People were screaming” while seeking news of their relatives at the hospital, Zindani said.“Many residents were also coming to donate blood,” he said. In Kunduz, at least four people were killed and 18 wounded by a bomb hidden in a bicycle that targeted a vehicle carrying mechanics working for the Taliban government, police spokesman Obaidullah Abedi said. An Interior Ministry spokesman said the roadside blast targeted a van of military mechanics and that school students were among the wounded. Another roadside blast in Kabul wounded three, including a child, he added.The number of bombings in Afghanistan has dwindled since the Taliban returned to power in August, but ISIL has claimed several attacks including Thursday’s bombing of the Seh Dokan mosque. “The soldiers of the caliphate managed to get a booby-trapped bag” inside the mosque, detonating it from afar after it was packed with worshippers, ISIL said in a statement.On Tuesday, two blasts outside a school in a Shia neighbourhood of Kabul killed at least six people and wounded 25 others. No group has claimed responsibility for that attack. #Afghanistan #MosqueMazar-i-Sharif #Explosion
