[ToloNews] In a suicide kaboom today (Thursday, February 13) at the Ministry of Urban Development and Housing, one person was killed, and three others were maimed.

The ministry’s spokesperson Mohammad Kamal Afghan stated that a jacket wallah attempting to enter the ministry was eliminated by security forces of the Islamic Emirate.

The spokesperson for the Ministry of Urban Development and Housing provided further details about the incident: "When he was attacked, the explosives he was carrying detonated, resulting in the martyrdom of one of our Mujahid comrades and the death of the attacker. Additionally, three civilians were maimed."

Abdul Mateen Qani, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Interior, said the suicide bomber was neutralized before reaching his target, and further investigations are underway.

The spokesperson said: "The security forces are conducting a thorough investigation, and just as perpetrators have been brought to justice before, they will be punished again."

"Intelligence and security forces are responsible for identifying the perpetrators and the root causes of such attacks, as the continuation of such incidents damages public morale," Sayed Muqaddam Amin, a political analyst, told TOLOnews.

This comes after a suicide kaboom near the Kabul Bank gate in Kunduz on Tuesday, which killed eight people and injured four others.
