Twelve people were killed and 41 others injured in a bomb blast inside a mosque in Mazar-e-Sharif earlier in the week. According to reports, Daesh militant outfit claimed responsibility for the blast.

Afghanistan’s Permanent Representative to the UN called Pakistan’s attacks on Khost and Kunar provinces a clear act of invasion of Afghan territory and formally complained to the UN Security Council about the matter.

The Afghan foreign ministry summoned the Pakistani envoy to Kabul over the attack and asked Pakistan to refrain from repeating such acts in the future.

Many Afghans in various parts of the country condemned Pakistan’s attacks and said they were ready to defend their country.

The United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) also expressed concern over Pakistan’s attacks on Afghanistan and civilian casualties caused by them, saying that civilians should not be targeted in any fight.

Attacks on civilians in Afghanistan last week have also been widely condemned on national and international levels, Pajhwok News reported.
