An explosion occurred at a Chinese restaurant in Kabul, Afghanistan, resulting in at least seven fatalities. The incident was claimed by ISIL (ISIS), which stated that a suicide bomber detonated an explosive vest inside the establishment frequented by Chinese nationals.

According to ISIL's statement, 25 individuals were either killed or wounded, including Taliban guards. The attack was linked to alleged actions by the Chinese government against Uighurs, and further threats were made against Chinese nationals in Afghanistan. The Ministry of Interior spokesperson, Mufti Abdul Mateen Qani, announced that the cause of the explosion is currently under investigation.

Police spokesperson Khalid Zadran identified the deceased as one Chinese national, named Ayub, and six Afghans. The restaurant, serving the Chinese Muslim community, was co-managed by a Chinese Muslim, Abdul Majid, his wife, and an Afghan partner, Abdul Jabbar Mahmood.

Guo Jiakun, a spokesperson for China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, confirmed that five Chinese nationals were injured. The Chinese government has requested Afghanistan to ensure the injured receive appropriate medical care and that measures are taken to safeguard its citizens and investments.

China maintains a 76km (47-mile) border with Afghanistan and has established strong relations with the Taliban government since their rise to power in 2021. China has denied allegations of human rights abuses against Uighurs in Xinjiang, a predominantly Muslim region.
