Abdul Matin Adrak, former head of Afghanistan’s National Disaster Management Authority, announced on Tuesday (April 28) that Badriya Jalali, a doctor and his wife, was killed in a targeted attack in Kabul.
He wrote: “With deep pain and sorrow, my wife Dr. Badriya was targeted in a merciless attack in Kabul. I pray for God’s mercy upon her martyrdom. I express my gratitude for your messages of sympathy and condolences and pray for your reward.”
Adrak, without providing further details, said that the incident is under investigation.
The Taliban, who have repeatedly claimed to have ensured security in Afghanistan and urged people to be grateful for this “blessing,” have not yet commented on the incident.
