At least eight people have been killed after a suicide bomber detonated explosives near the entrance of the Russian embassy in Kabul, security sources have told Al Jazeera。
The dead include two employees of the embassy, the Russian foreign ministry said on Monday, adding that an “unknown militant” set off an explosive device near the entrance to the consular section of the embassy at 10:50am (06:20 GMT).
Police said the attacker was shot dead by armed guards as he approached the embassy gate in Darul Aman area in southwest of Kabul.
“The suicide attacker, before reaching the target, was recognised and shot by Russian embassy [Taliban] guards,” Mawlawi Sabir, the head of the police district where the attack took place, told the Reuters news agency.
It was not immediately clear if the attacker was able to set off the blast before being shot, or if the gunfire detonated the explosives.
