The explosion happened near a shopping complex (apparently) and near a hotel – well screw me doesn’t that make it obvious where it occurred. On a better note – not much has happened in the Capital in the previous month – but when it does it is big – as in BIG BOOM.
One of the last attacks in Kabul was by Taliban forces and they struck similar attractions and killed 12, and that was in Mid’ January. There were two explosions reported and one building was on fire – near the hotel and shopping centre. Two smaller explosions were also reported – most likely when the armed men were shot as there was also reports of gun fire at this time … it’s common for a suicide bomber to be shot and shot and shot … until his bomb goes boom.
An eye witness said that a bomber had blown him self up on the second floor of the hotel … one hotel worker said (in crap English) “I saw foreigners were crying and shouting. It was a very bad situation inside. God help me, otherwise I would be dead,”.
