The other victim was identified as Fida Mohammad, the media outlet adds.
"Kabul's streets are deserted...no man or woman can be seen. You don't know what will happen from one hour to the next," Salek remarked, describing the current situation in the capital of Afghanistan. "There is an atmosphere of fear. If I get the chance, I will also leave Afghanistan and go to some other country."
