The Taliban orchestrated a suicide car bombing that claimed the lives of at least 95 people and wounded 158 others today (January 27, 2018) in Afghanistan's capital of Kabul, according to the Fox News website.
Wahid Majroh, a spokesman for the public health ministry, said that the toll might still rise, because reports from the hospital show many of the wounded appear to be in critical condition.
The attacker used an ambulance filled with explosives to pass through a security checkpoint, telling police he was transporting a patient to a nearby hospital, said Nasrat Rahimi, deputy spokesperson for the Interior Ministry.
"The majority of the dead in the attack are civilians, but of course we have military casualties as well," Rahimi said.
