Shia mosque bombing kills dozens in Afghan city of Kunduz

Large number of worshippers killed or wounded during Friday prayers in blast claimed by ISKP

At least 100 worshippers have been killed or injured in a suicide bombing that targeted a packed Shia mosque in Afghanistan during Friday prayers.

Responsibility for the blast, which took place in Kunduz, the capital of the province of the same name in the north-east of the country, was claimed by the Islamic State's local affiliate, Islamic State Khorasan Province (ISKP), which has a long history of attacking Afghanistan's Shia minority, who make up about 15-20% of the population.
