Group denies involvement Saturday bombing which killed dozens of people, mainly young girls, outside their secondary school
The Taliban has declared a three-day ceasefire in Afghanistan to mark this week’s Eid al-Fitr holiday, just two days after the government blamed the group for bombs outside a school that killed more than 50 people, mostly young girls.
“Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate are instructed to halt all offensive operations against the enemy countrywide from the first till the third day of Eid,” a statement released by the insurgents on Monday said.
