Islamic State group claims attack on Chinese hotel in Kabul

India TV News  

Kabul attack : The militant Islamic State group has claimed responsibility for a coordinated attack on a Chinese-owned hotel in Afghanistan's capital that left three assailants dead and at least two of the hotel guests injured as they tried to escape by jumping out from a window. Hours later, the regional affiliate of the Islamic State group - a key rival of the Taliban since they seized power in Afghanistan over a year ago - claimed responsibility for the attack. In a statement carried by one of the militant Telegram channels used by IS, the group said two of its members targeted the hotel because it is frequented by diplomats and owned by “communist China". China demanded a “thorough investigation" and urged the Taliban government “to take resolute and strong measures to ensure the safety of Chinese citizens, institutions and projects in Afghanistan”, Wang said.
