report in Khaama Press online, Dec 12, 2022
A blast rattled central Kabul’s Shahr-e-Naw area on Monday afternoon, the latest violence to strike the country. Local sources reported hearing occasional gunfire close to a hotel that is apparently popular with Chinese business travelers.
People were advised to stay away from the windows in a conversation that Khaama Press obtained.
According to the sources, Chinese diplomats and residents frequently travel through the location where the incident occurred.
Neither the Afghan administration nor the Chinese embassy in Kabul has yet released any statements in response to the incident. However, it appears from the footage that a part of a tall building has caught fire and is spewing smoke.
Since the political upheaval in Afghanistan, a sizable number of Chinese businesspeople have traveled to Afghanistan.
No group or organization has yet claimed responsibility albeit, the ISIS has claimed responsibility for the recent bombings and shooting attacks in various regions of Afghanistan.
