The number of people killed in an attack on a Shiite mosque in the Afghan capital during Friday prayers rose to at least 28 — up from 20 — including women and children, the chief of Kabul's hospitals was quoted by ABC News as saying on Saturday.
Mohammad Salim Rasouli said more than 50 others were wounded in the attack a day earlier that went on for hours.
Two assailants blew themselves up and another two were shot to death by Afghan security forces, according to police official Mohammed Sadique Muradi.
Daesh terrorist group claimed responsibility for the attack, the latest to target Afghanistan's minority Shiites.
