According to the New York Times’ correspondent in Kabul, there were five attackers, two of whom detonated their suicide vests, two others were gunned down by security forces and one arrested alive.
The Ministry of Defence later announced the end of the attack, in which 11 members of the Afghan National Army (ANA) were killed and 16 others wounded.
