Nusrat Rahimi, the spokesperson of Afghanistan's Ministry of Interior, said that so far the number of dead is 27 and the number of injured is 29, most of whom are civilians.
He said: This statistic may change.
We remind you that armed attackers attacked the 25th anniversary of Abdul Ali Mazari's martyrdom at around 11:20 this morning (August 16) before noon. The Ministry of Interior has said that the attackers shot at people from a half-built building.
Earlier, the Ministry of Public Health said that 18 people were injured as a result of the shooting of armed attackers. However, the statistics provided by the clinics indicate that more than 23 people died and 33 people were injured.
Despite all this, the Taliban have denied involvement in this attack by publishing a newsletter.
