At least five people have been killed and 35 wounded in explosions in Kabul, an Italian NGO which runs a hospital in the Afghan capital said, before a truce with Pakistan came into effect.
“We started receiving ambulances filled with wounded people, and we learned that there had been explosionsa few kilometres away from our hospital,” Dejan Panic, EMERGENCY’s country director in Afghanistan, said.
“Forty people have arrived so far, including women and children,” he said, adding that “unfortunately, five people were already dead on arrival”.
