Three people were killed and many others injured after gunmen attacked a hotel in Kabul, the Afghan capital, on Monday
The attack started around 2:30 p.m. local time in Kabul’s commercial Shar-e-Naw area, with civilians in the building, according to police chief spokesman Khalid Zadran. An eyewitness who lived nearby told CNN he saw a gunfight break out after gunmen attacked the hotel. Police sent security forces to the scene, launching an operation to clear the area.
Videos posted on Twitter by a journalist in Kabul and verified by Reuters showed smoke billowing out of one of the floors amid sounds of gunshots, while a person was seen trying to escape the attack by jumping out of a hotel window. Afterward, an emergency non-profit in Kabul tweeted that it received 21 casualties at their hospital located near the attack, including three who were dead on arrival – separate from the three attackers killed.
