The Islamic State group has claimed responsibility for a suicide attack in Kabul's southern outskirts on Monday, which killed six people and injured 13. The attack targeted the Taliban government's prosecution service, with the bomber detonating as employees left work. The IS group's Amaq media wing claimed the bombing aimed to avenge Muslims in Taliban prisons, though the actual toll was disputed. Taliban authorities, focusing on security since the US-led withdrawal, face ongoing threats from IS-K, which has previously targeted Taliban officials and religious minorities.
