2024 Kabul suicide bombing kills 6, injures 13; Islamic State's Afghan affiliate suspected.

On September 2, 2024, a suicide bombing in Kabul's Qala Bakhtiar neighborhood killed at least six civilians and injured 13 others. The attack, confirmed by local police, has not yet been claimed by any group, although the Islamic State's Afghan affiliate is suspected, given its history of targeting civilians and rival Taliban forces. Since the Taliban regained power in August 2021, violence has persisted in Afghanistan despite a general decrease in conflict.
