US Secretary of State John Kerry (L) and Afghan President Ashraf Ghani
Kabul (IINA) – Explosions rang out in central Kabul on Saturday night, shortly after U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry left the Afghan capital following an unannounced visit to Afghanistan.
At least two explosions were heard, minutes after Kerry's plane departed from the city, according to AFP journalist.
Authorities were not immediately able to comment on the nature of the blasts nor on whether they had claimed any casualties, but Taliban insurgents frequently attack government and military installations in the city.
Kerry’s visit came as Kabul desperately tries to bring the insurgent group back to the negotiating table to end their conflict which began in 2001.
