"We strongly condemn the terrorist bomb attack that led to the killing of Khalil Rahman Haqqani, Minister of Refugees of the Afghan interim government, and some of his colleagues in Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan," HAMAS said in a statement.
The statement expressed solidarity with the Afghan people, extending condolences to the interim government and the families of the victims. HAMAS wished mercy and forgiveness for the deceased and a speedy recovery for the wounded.
Khalilurrahman Haqqani was martyred in a bomb attack at the ministry building during prayer. Local sources reported that the explosion was a suicide bomb attack. Emirati officials stated that ISIS carried out the attack and claimed responsibility.
Haqqani had been a prominent figure in the Taliban ranks for years and played a significant role in the new administration after the country was liberated from occupation. (ILKHA)
