At least 3 killed in attack on Kabul military hospital
Kabul - Arab Today
A military hospital in the Afghan capital of Kabul has come under attack, with at least three people killed and at least 50 others injured, CNN reported, quoting government officials.
Sardar Mohammad Daud Khan Hospital, the biggest and best-equipped facility in the country, was targeted by attackers Wednesday morning, Afghan Interior Ministry Spokesman Sediq Sediqqi told CNN.
Saleem Rasooli, the head of Kabul Hospitals, confirmed the casualties to CNN.
The injured have been taken to the Wazir Akbar Khan hospital, Smael Kawosi, media relation officer for the Ministry of Health, said.
The facility, known locally as the "400 bed" hospital, is only a few hundred meters from the US embassy and the diplomatic quarter of Kabul.
Initial reports indicate attackers detonated an explosion before entering the hospital compound, he said.
"At first there was a firing followed by a huge blast," an employee at a nearby hospital said.
A press statement from the Afghan Defense Ministry indicated that a suicide bomber had detonated the explosive.
