Islamic State-Khorasan (ISIS-K) claimed responsibility for the attack, reported Tolo News. On October 3, an explosion occurred outside Eid Gah Mosque in Kabul, killing and wounding several people. The Taliban has said that ISIS-K is not a serious threat in Afghanistan, the group has claimed responsibility for many of the attacks, including the attacks at the airport and the Kunduz and Kandahar mosques' attacks, all of which had heavy casualties, reported Tolo News.
