The Islamic State claimed responsibility for two explosions that killed 13 U.S. troops and dozens of others and injured another 18 service members outside the Kabul airport during the day on Thursday.
ISIS said it killed and injured approximately 160 people between the two attacks and published a photograph of a purported suicide bomber in a report put out by its Amaq news agency, according to Rita Katz, director of the SITE Intelligence Group. She later shared an official claim of the attack by ISIS from its Khorasan Province.
