Two employees of Afghanistan’s human rights body have been killed in a bomb attack in Kabul.
The Afghanistan Independent Human Rights Commission said the workers died when a homemade sticky bomb attached to their vehicle exploded.
Kabul police spokesman Ferdaws Faramurz confirmed the incident occurred. No group has claimed responsibility for it.
The United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan condemned the killings and called for an immediate investigation. “There can be no justification for attacks against human rights defenders,” it said on Twitter.
The attack came less than a week after two prosecutors and three other employees from the attorney general’s office were shot dead by gunmen on the outskirts of Kabul.
Well, COVID-19 has clearly not slowed anything down here.
