The Daesh group on Saturday claimed responsibility for a suicide bomb attack on a Shiite mosque in the southern Afghan city of Kandahar that killed at least 47 people and injured scores more.
Suicide bombers attacked a mosque packed with worshippers attending Friday prayers in southern Afghanistan, a Taliban official said.
The Friday assault came just a week after another Daesh-claimed attack on Shiite worshippers at a mosque in the northern city of Kunduz that killed more than 60 people.
