Cairo: The Islamic State claims responsibility for a series of bomb attacks in the city of Jalalabad in East Afghanistan, the Amaaq group news agency said on the telegram channel on Sunday.
“More than 35 Taliban militia members were killed or injured, in a series of explosions that occurred,” said militant group, referring to the explosion on Saturday and Sunday.
There were no comments directly from the Taliban about the death toll.
