In Afghanistan, there is a high threat of terrorist attacks, which comes from various terrorist groups. The United Kingdom has reliable information that such attacks are preparing, the Minister of Armed Forces Britain James Hiappi said. It quotes Reuters.
Terrorists can attack directly at Kabul International Airport, the British authorities are convinced. In this regard, Hiappi called on British citizens to stay in safe places and wait for further instructions from London.
“I can only say that the threat is serious. We will do our best to protect those who are in Afghanistan. There is a chance that as new messages arrives, we will be able to change the recommendations [regarding behavior in Kabul],” Minister
Pentagon representatives also talked about the threats of terrorist attacks in Kabul. The militants of the “Ig-Horacean” grouping (the branch of the terrorist organization “Islamic State” prohibited in the territory of the Russian Federation) threatened to arrange terrorist attacks on the approaches to Kabul International Airport. The regional source of CNN, which is engaged in the fight against terrorism, said that several hundred members of the “Ig-Horace” escaped from prisons in Bagram and Bulleh-Charch, located east of Kabul. In this regard, the American authorities seriously fear terrorist attacks.
