A barrage of rockets hit Kabul Tuesday morning, just as President Ashraf Ghani was live on air delivering his address for the Muslim holy festival Eid-al-Adha in a special ceremony at the presidential palace. At least one rocket landed near the palace in Kabul’s green zone.
The Afghan Taliban deny responsibility for Tuesday's rocket attacks on Kabul.
Kabul police said a group of five suicide bombers hid behind Kabul’s Eidgah mosque and fired multiple rockets from there towards various parts of town. A security source confirmed at least ten rockets were fired but local media is reporting more. Four of the suicide bombers have died in clashes with the local security forces. At least one policeman has been wounded. Afghan ToloNews reported a military helicopter was seen targeting the attackers hideout near Eidgah mosque.
President Ghani, who continued his address, said Afghans cannot be cowed by such attacks. He also said the government was prepared for such an incident on Eid.
