Eighteen people were also wounded in the Kabul attack, which appears to have targeted vehicles of the EU police training mission.

A spokeswoman for EUPOL, Sari Haukka-Konu, said that one non-mission member who was travelling in a EUPOL vehicle had been killed. “All mission members who were in the vehicle are in a safe place and their injuries are not believed to be fatal,” she said. “A non-EUPOL person inside the vehicle is deceased.”
