A suicide bombing attack has killed at least six people including a top Russian diplomat at the Russian Embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan.
A criminal case has now been opened into the death of Mikhail Shakh, an event described by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov as a "terrorist act."
Lavrov, visiting neighbouring Tajikistan added: "Let’s hope that the organizers and perpetrators of this terrorist act will suffer their deserved punishment in the very near future."
