Kabul attack :ISIS Claims Responsibility

Suicide bombers hit a large demonstration by members of Afghanistan's Hazara minority in Kabul on Saturday, killing at least 61 people and wounding 207, officials said. ISIS has claimed responsibility for the attack, Amaq news agency said.

Mohammad Ismail Kawousi, a spokesman for the ministry of public health, said at least 61 dead and 207 wounded had been taken to nearby hospitals but the numbers may change. It was not immediately clear how many bombs were involved in the attack.
"Opportunist terrorists went among the protestors and set off explosions that killed and wounded a number of our countrymen including security and defence personnel," President Ashraf Ghani said in a statement.
