09/17/2019 (Afghanistan) - According to emerging social media feeds, an explosion occurred near the Massoud Square area of Police District (PD) 9 in Kabul on Tuesday, 17 September. Early reports do not state how many have been injured in the blast or the nature of it. Further news is awaited.
Afghanistan remains an extremely high-risk operational environment, and deployments should only be undertaken with the strictest possible security risk management procedures in place. Members should maintain a low profile and use a vetted security provider that offers close protection and emergency response services. Minimise time spent in the vicinity of places of worship, security checkpoints, security headquarters, and government buildings as these are among the primary targets for militant attacks.
