MOSCOW (Sputnik) — The US Embassy in the Afghan capital on Wednesday warned of possible terrorist attacks in Kabul.
"The U.S. Embassy Kabul reminds U.S. citizens in Kabul and other parts of Afghanistan to review your personal security plans, take appropriate steps to enhance your personal safety, remain aware of your surroundings, monitor local news for updates, and maintain a high level of vigilance," the embassy said in a statement.
