Series of huge explosions and gunshots rock Kabul
What's the story
A series of huge explosions rocked Kabul today followed by gunshots, in the latest attacks on the Afghan capital.
Several blasts were heard in the heart of the city that were confirmed by police spokesman Hashmatullah Estanakzai.
"An explosion happened in front of police precinct 13 in west Kabul. We also have reports of small arms fire," Estanakzai told AFP.
Claims
No immediate claim of responsibility for the attacks made
Estanakzai said, "A couple of other explosions have also been reported in Shar-e-Naw area of Kabul. We will provide more details later."
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attacks that come just over a week after twin blasts in Kabul killed 25 people, including AFP chief photographer Shah Marai and eight journalists.
That previous attack was claimed by Islamic State.
