At least five soldiers were killed and ten others were wounded in an attack on a military academy in Kabul.

Five militants attacked the Marshal Fahim Military Academy, on the outskirts of the city. The academy hosts the majority of training schools for the Afghan National Army. ISIL claimed responsibility for the attack through their Amaq news agency. The attack marks the latest violence that has hit the Afghan capital. It came only two days after an explosives-laden ambulance blew up in a busy street in the city, killing 103 people, and injuring more than 230.
