Kabul: Afghan security forces have killed all the insurgents involved in the attack on a guest house near the Spanish embassy in Kabul, Interior Minister spokesman Sediq Sediqqi said on SaturdayA Spanish security officer was killed in the attack, in a heavily protected part of Kabul close to several embassies and government buildings. At least seven people were treated in a nearby hospital run by Italian aid group Emergency, mainly for minor injuries.
Attackers blew up a car bomb late on Friday afternoon before at least three gunmen entered a compound and battled security forces for hours, with gunfire and explosions heard intermittently until late into the night and early morning.
In a message posted to his Twitter account, Sediqqi said all of the attackers had been killed.
The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack, just days after President Ashraf Ghani returned from a regional peace conference in Pakistan, where he sought support to revive peace talks that stalled this year.
It followed a separate Taliban attack on the airport complex in the southern city of Kandahar, in which at least 50 civilians and security forces personnel were killed.
Afghan Police Special Forces have killed all the attackers who were involved in last night terrorist attack in Kabul.
