Taliban admits attack as Kabul debate resumes
Sunday’s attack was the worst in Kabul since four German peacekeepers were killed and 31 injured by a suicide car bomb in June, and coincided with the final stages of a key debate to finalise the country’s post-Taliban constitution.
Taliban guerrillas and Islamic militant allies believed to include members of al-Qaida have declared a holy war on foreign forces in Afghanistan and their local partners, including government officials, soldiers and aid workers.
