A suicide bomber targeted Afghanistan’s Supreme Court on Tuesday, killing at least 20 and wounding dozens more.
Public Health Minister Ferozuddin Feroz said 41 people were wounded, including 10 in critical condition.
The attacker, who was on foot, targeted a side door of the building in downtown Kabul, where court employees and others were exiting, according to the Associated Press.
No one immediately claimed the attack, which bore the hallmarks of the Taliban. The insurgents have been at war with the U.S.-backed government for 15 years and have increasingly targeted the judiciary since the execution of six convicted insurgents last May.
“Those behind today’s bombing and other such despicable acts must face justice,” spokesman Stephane Dujarric said at U.N. headquarters in New York. “Indiscriminate attacks against civilians, including employees of the judicial institutions, are violations of human rights and international humanitarian law and cannot be justified.”
