ISLAMABAD — A pair of heavily armed suicide bombers Wednesday stormed an education department office in eastern Afghanistan and killed at least 11 people.

Witnesses said the assailants fired indiscriminately at staffers inside the building in Jalalabad, capital of the eastern Nangarhar province.

A provincial government spokesman, Attaullah Khogyani, told VOA the attack injured 17 people.

He said shortly after the siege began, Afghan security forces surrounded the compound and rescued 20 people before the nearly four hours long assault ended. There were no immediate claims of responsibility.

Tuesday, a suicide bomber blew himself up, killing 12 people at a security check post in Jalalabad.

Islamic State’s Afghan branch, Khorasan Province or ISKP, claimed responsibility for the attack and also released a picture of its purported suicide bomber.

The Middle East-based terrorist group also took credit for the July 1 suicide bombing in high-security zone of Jalalabad that killed 19 people, mostly members of the minority Sikh community.

Nangarhar is located next to the country’s porous border with Pakistan and several of its southern districts are referred to as ISKP strongholds from where they plot and stage terrorist attacks elsewhere in Afghanistan.

    That is a great example
    in
    creative creation
    of
    an anarchy ((Jalalabad city)) by the enemies of the whole region
    of
    MASHRIQEE- the evil idea is to
    keep those people busy under fire; so, they won’t be able to extend
    a
    helping hand to Kabul
    and
    other provinces- prove
    me wrong !

    *There is no other
    reason
    for it- the cowards, all have
    one unified agenda- the continuation of senseless
    anarchies across Afghanistan.
    =============
    AND YOU WILL NEVER
    FIND OUT WHETHER WHO
    REALY DID IT- ALL THE
    EVIL AGENTS FROM ALL THE ARROGANT
    CORNERS OF THE WORLD
    ARE STATIONED ON THAT LINE OF GEOLOGICALLY
    PROMINENTLY RUGGED STRETCH, FROM THE HIGHLANDS OF KABUL VALLEYS
    ALL THE WAY DOWN
    TO LOWLANDS
    OF THE
    PESHAWAR VALLEYS.

    You can call it
    ridiculous and/or
    anything- it won’t
    matter !!!!!
