SOT, Hashmatullah, Victim’s relative (Dari): “At least 20 persons were killed and 30 or 40 persons were injured, I think it is related to ISIS because there is no any terrorist group.”

SOT, Shah Mahmod, Eyewitness (Dari): “The people came for pray from other mosques also, unfortunately in this explosion more than 150 persons were killed and injured.”

SOT, Shah Mahmod, Eyewitness (Dari): “The Muslims killing is not written in any holy book, if we are Muslims, if we know humanity, never do this kind of action that the explosion happened in mosque, and our people are losing their lives.”
