Ammon News - A child was killed in a rocket attack northwest of Kabul airport amid the US evacuation, according to an Afghan police chief. Early reports suggest at least two people have been killed and three injured in the attack, according to Afghan news agency Asvaka. A security official from the recently deposed government told AFP it was a rocket that “initial information shows hit a house.” The US carried out a military strike on Sunday in Kabul, two US officials told Reuters. The two strikes initially appeared to be separate incidents, though information on both remained scarce. An ISIS-K attack outside Kabul airport on Thursday killed more than 170 people including 13 US military personnel as Afghans queued up attempting to flee Taliban rule. The US retaliated with a drone strike that they say killed two top ISIS-K members. US President Joe Biden warned on Saturday that another attack was highly likely. *Agencies |
