A number of rockets were heard in the Wazir Akbar Khan area of Kabul, where the Presidential Palace is located.
Simultaneously with Eid al-Adha in Kabul, several rockets were fired, and the sound of these rockets was heard in the Wazir Akbar Khan area of Kabul, where the Presidential Palace is also located.
Afghan Interior Ministry spokesman Mirwais Stanekzai tweeted that three rockets had hit the presidential palace near the citadel, confirming a rocket attack.
He added that one of the rockets fired at the Afghan presidential palace did not explode.
Stanekzai said a rocket hit behind the Kabul Eidgah Mosque, a second rocket behind the Golbahar shopping center and a third rocket in the Chaman Hozuri area.
A spokesman for the Afghan Interior Ministry said that according to initial reports, the incident did not result in any casualties.
The rockets were reportedly fired from a car in the 18th Alley area of Parwan III, located in the 4th district of Kabul.
Three years ago, at the same time as Eid al-Adha, the area was targeted by rockets.
