The U.S. military conducted an airstrike in a crowded neighborhood northwest of Kabul's international airport Sunday in order to deter a possible bombing, a U.S. official confirmed.
"U.S. military forces conducted a self-defense unmanned over-the-horizon airstrike today on a vehicle in Kabul, eliminating an imminent ISIS-K threat to Hamad Karzai International airport," Capt. Bill Urban, spokesman for U.S. Central Command, told Fox News. "We are confident we successfully hit the target." "Significant secondary explosions from the vehicle indicated the presence of a substantial amount of explosive material," he continued.More Related News
