Afghanistan chief executive condemns Kabul suicide attack

Afghanistan Chief Executive Abdullah Abdullah on Monday condemned the terrorist attack on those traveling to their work places in Kabul this morning, leaving 14 persons killed and scores others injured.

On his twitter account, Abdullah said this attack is an act of terror and intimidation.

A suicide attack on a minibus in Kabul has killed at least 14 people and injured several more, Afghan authorities said.

The victims were Nepali nationals on their way to the Canadian embassy where they worked as security guards.

The attacker, who was on foot, waited for the bus as it left a compound, police said.

A Taliban spokesman said they carried out the attack, the first since the start of the holy month of Ramadan.

The attack happened shortly before 06:00 local time (01:30 GMT) on a main road leading out of the capital towards the city of Jalalabad.
