Several American citizens were killed or wounded in a terror attack at a popular hotel in Afghanistan over the weekend, the Department of State confirmed Tuesday.
Carried out by six Taliban gunmen wearing suicide vests, the 13-hour siege at the Intercontinental Hotel in Kabul left 22 people dead, including 14 foreigners, according to Afghan officials. The State Department said Americans were included among the casualties, but declined to provide the number killed or wounded.
“We offer our deepest condolences to the families and friends of those who were killed and wish for the speedy recovery of those wounded,” the department said in a statement, according to the Associated Press. “Out of respect for the families of the deceased, we have no further comment.”
