Blast hits Sikh temple in Afghanistan; casualties unclear
Blast hits Gurudwara in Afghanistan capital Kabul.
Kabul: A blast has been reported at a Sikh temple in the Afghan capital Kabul on Saturday morning, a temple official said.
So far, it was unclear if there were any casualties.
"There were around 30 people inside the temple. We don't know how many of them are alive or how many dead. The Taliban are not allowing us to go inside, we don't know what to do," the official said.
In the meantime, local broadcaster Tolo aired footage showing heavy grey fumes of smoke rising from the area.
Taliban officials have not confirmed the explosion, and it was not immediately clear who was behind the blast.
Today's explosion follows a blast on Friday in the northern city of Kunduz at a mosque that killed one and injured two.
