Islamic State claims responsibility for gun attack that killed three Spanish tourists in Afghanistan The terror group's affiliate in Afghanistan is a major rival of the country's Taliban government, and earlier claimed responsibility for an attack on Chinese citizens in Kabul in 2022.

Islamic State has claimed responsibility after three Spanish tourists were killed when gunmen opened fire in Afghanistan's central Bamiyan province.

An Afghan person was also killed, and a further four foreign nationals and three Afghans were injured in the attack in the mountainous region, the Taliban's interior ministry has said.

Islamic State has claimed responsibility for the attack on its Telegram channel.

The Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs said on Friday that three of its nationals died in the attack and that at least one more had been injured.

Those “tourist” may as well have gone sight-seeing in the sewage canals of Calcutta.

What could possibly attract ANYONE in the world to tour a Muslimstan shithole? /spit

I remember when, a few years back, tourists visiting the Valley of the Kings in Egypt were murdered by moslem crazies.

You take your life in your hands when visiting moslem areas, now even in the USA and former Christian Europe.
