    Desk:  An explosion was heard in Afghanistan's capital's
    Wazir Akbar Khan area, which was confirmed by interior ministry spokesperson
    Bismulah Habib. The blast was heard near the capital's 'green zone,' which once
    housed many foreign embassies and NATO headquarters. It is now under the
    control of the ruling Taliban.



     



    The blast occurred as worshipers were leaving the mosque in
    the Afghan capital, and the number of casualties is unknown at this time.



     In recent months, several deadly blasts have occurred at
    mosques during Friday prayers, some of which have been claimed by the Islamic
    State.
