At least 20 people have died in a suicide attack at the Kabul office of Afghan president's running mate, The Daily Beast website reports today (July 29, 2019).
The attack happened at the office of Amrullah Saleh who is running to be vice president with President Ashraf Ghani in the September elections. Fifty people were wounded in the attack.
No group claimed responsibility for the attack.
Zalmay Khalilzad, the Afghan-American diplomat leading the U.S. side in peace negotiations with the Taliban, said: "The attack on Amrullah Saleh's political party offices was grotesque and a clear act of terrorism."
