Following the explosion in the Imam Zaman Mosque in Pul Khumri, the Taliban security command in Baghlan says that at least 7 Shiites were killed and 15 others were injured in this incident.

The Taliban security command has said that this suicide blast occurred during Friday prayers.

The security command of the Taliban has written in a newsletter that the security and intelligence forces of this group have gone to the place for investigation.

ISIS has claimed responsibility for this suicide attack.

This event took place on Friday (21 Mizan) in the Shia mosque of the second district of Pul Khomri city, the center of Baghlan province.

The pictures that have reached us from inside this mosque show the bodies of several worshipers.

At the same time, local sources in Pul Khumri city told “News24” Afghanistan that the number of casualties in this explosion is higher, but the Taliban do not report it.

These sources reported the death of more than 20 people.

A Taliban official has said that some of the injured have been taken to Kunduz province for treatment and some of them are in serious condition.

Religious places and public centers of Afghan Shiites have been the targets of deadly explosive attacks in recent years.

These attacks have continued with the re-domination of the Taliban in Afghanistan for the past two years, and the ISIS group has taken responsibility for some of these attacks.
