A devastating suicide bombing occurred in Kabul on Thursday, resulting in the death of one individual and the injury of three others near government offices. An official spokesman reported this as Afghanistan's second explosion this week.

The assailant, identified by security forces, was shot as he neared his target, the Ministry of Urban Development and Housing, leading to the detonation of his explosives, according to the Interior Ministry.

This attack took place in a bustling area of Kabul filled with administrative offices and embassies. It stands as part of a series of ongoing attacks in the nation, many by the local arm of ISIS, challenging the Taliban's efforts to secure peace since their 2021 takeover.
