Taliban Minister Khalil Haqqani Killed in Suicide Bombing at Kabul Ministry Mosque
Dec 11, 2024, 11:33 AM
Afghanistan's Minister of Refugees and Repatriation, Khalil Haqqani, was killed on Wednesday at around 2:00 pm local time in an explosion inside the Ministry's mosque in Kabul, according to multiple sources. The blast, reportedly a suicide bombing, occurred as Haqqani was leaving the mosque after attending an Economic Commission meeting chaired by Mullah Baradar earlier in the day. Haqqani, a brother of Jalaluddin Haqqani and the uncle of Sirajuddin Haqqani, the Taliban's interior minister and leader of the Haqqani Network, was a senior figure within the Taliban. Three of his bodyguards were also killed in the explosion. This marks the first time a Taliban cabinet member has been killed since their takeover, representing a significant loss for the group. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack, and Taliban officials have yet to comment on the incident.
