It’s 9.02 am.
6am. Neighbouring suburb, a UN guest house in Sheerpur has come under attack. 6 militants stormed the house and began shooting, killing three UN workers and injuring around five. Numbers to be confirmed. Of course, the Afghans killed haven’t been mentioned yet.
I heard more explosions, sounded like an RPG and then gun firing.
It was the Kabul Serena Hotel.
Kabul Serena has also come under attack. RPG and other weaponry have also been involved.
Reports coming in that that there were 7 militants – 3 of them were suicide bombers who detonated themselves and the rest of them were snipers.
I hear sirens wailing…
I woke up at 4am this morning and had a gut feeling something was wrong or that something bad will happen. I never wake up in the middle of the night.
My condolences to the family of the killed.
