Explosion at Kabul airport hours after ISIS bomb threat | Daily Mail Online
Two explosions at Kabul airport have killed at least 13 people, including children, and injured at least three US Marines just hours after intelligence officials warned of an imminent threat to the crowd gathered there trying to escape the Taliban.
The first blast was caused by an ISIS suicide bomber in a vest, according to unnamed government sources cited by Fox and Politico. It detonated outside The Baron Hotel, where Westerners were staying before their evacuation flights.
A second explosion was reported nearby a short time later at the airport’s Abbey Gate, where crowds of Afghans have been gathering for more than a week in the hope of being put on one of the evacuation flights out. That explosion was caused by a car bomb, according to unconfirmed reports.
