KABUL – Several worshippers were injured after an explosion at a mosque in Kunduz is a city in northern Afghanistan during Friday prayers.

The blast reportedly happened at a Shiite mosque in Sayed Abad district this afternoon, local officials said.

No group has claimed responsibility for the attack.

Earlier this month, a blast killed several civilians at a mosque in Kabul where people were holding prayers for the mother of the Taliban’s spokesperson.

The latest attacks underlined the mounting challenges facing the Taliban as they are scrambling to set up a government structure after toppling Ashraf Ghani’s government.
