Bombing close to Russian embassy in Kabul kills 7
A suicide car bomb attack close to the Russian embassy in the Afghan capital, Kabul, has killed at least seven people and wounded around 25 others, an Afghan official said Wednesday.
The police chief for Kabul, Gen. Abdul Rahman Rahimi, said the seven civilians included two women.
No Russian embassy employees were injured, the Russian Foreign Ministry confirmed in a statement. It said the building had sustained "insignificant" damage.
The attackers, driving a car packed with explosives, targeted a minibus belonging to Kaboora Productions, which is a subsidiary of one of Afghanistan's biggest media organizations, Moby Group, Rahimi said.
