The UN mission in Afghanistan expressed anger over the blast targeting a religious gathering, the BBC reported.

Earlier, United Nations Secretary General António Guterres has “strongly condemned” the terrorist attack targeting a religious gathering in the Afghan capital, Kabul, which claimed dozens of civilian lives.

In a statement issued by his spokesperson, the Secretary-General reiterated that the deliberate targeting of civilians is a “clear violation of international humanitarian law.”

He said “every effort” should be made to bring the perpetrators to justice.

In the statement, Mr. Guterres also extended his deepest sympathies and condolences to the families of the victims and wished a speedy recovery to those injured.

The attack is said to be one of the deadliest in recent months.
