Pakistani embassy in Kabul attacked

Pakistan’s embassy in Kabul came under attack on Friday with gunfire injuring a Pakistani security guard, officials said, in what Islamabad called an attempt to assassinate its head of mission . In a separate attack in the Afghan capital on Friday, one person was killed in a suicide bombing near the office of the Hezb-e-islami party of ex-pm Gulbuddin Hekmatyar. It was not immediately clear who was behind the embassy attack, which came just days after Pakistan’s foreign minister led a team to Kabul to meet Taliban authorities.
