KABUL (Reuters) -A blast hit a mosque in Afghanistan’s capital in the vicinity of the heavily fortified interior ministry compound on Wednesday, the ministry’s spokesman said.
“The mosque was used by visitors and sometimes by interior ministry employees,” Abdul Nafi Takor said.
Officials did not immediately give any casualty numbers, or comment on the nature of the blast.
The interior ministry compound is in a secure area next to Kabul international airport.
