A pair of bomb blasts at a boys' school in Kabul left at least six people dead on Tuesday, the latest in a series of attacks on the minority Shiite Hazara community in Afghanistan. While no group has claimed responsibility, it follows a pattern of aggression by ISIS-K, the Islamic State affiliate, against Shiites in Afghanistan, as well as Pakistan. Governments, not only the Taliban, have failed to come up with a strategy where they could provide security to the Hazaras and Shias," says Afghan journalist Bilal Sarwary. I call it a great betrayal towards people who are extremely committed to a bright future of Afghanistan."
