Isis has claimed responsibility for an attack on Tuesday night that killed three female media workers and wounded a fourth as they were on their way home from work at a TV station in Afghanistan.
The attack deliberately targeted female employees at the Enikas TV station in the eastern city of Jalalabad, according to SITE Intelligence Group, an American NGO which tracks the online activity of white supremacists and jihadist organisations.
The victims were all female workers at Enikas TV aged between 18 and 20.
It is the latest in a string of targeted attacks that has spread fear among those working in urban parts of the war-torn country, and which is increasingly overshadowing the US’s attempt to negotiate an end to the country’s civil war.
