KABUL, Afghanistan — The U.S. Embassy in Afghanistan says one U.S. citizen has been killed in an attack on a Kabul guesthouse.
The embassy said in an email statement issued Wednesday that it can confirm reports a U.S. citizen was killed in the attack and it extended condolences to the victim’s family. The name of the victim was not immediately available.
Gunmen stormed the guesthouse as it hosted a party for foreigners Wednesday night, with an eyewitness saying several dozen people, including Americans, likely were being held captive.
