Kabul/New Delhi: India on Saturday condemned the terror attack in Kabul city of Afghanistan which left more than 20 people dead.

The attack on the education centre had left several others injured.

" We are saddened by yesterday's terror attack at the Kaaj Educational Center in Dasht-e-Barchi, Kabul and extend our condolences to the families of the victims," MEA spokesperson Arindam Bagchi tweeted.

" Indian strongly condemns the continued targeting of innocent students at educational places," he said.

The UN has condemned a suicide bombing in the Afghan capital Kabul which has left more than 20 dead, according to latest news reports, many of them young women who were sitting mock exams at an education centre.

Dozens more were wounded at the Kaaj tuition centre, in the Dasht-e-Barchi area in the western part of the capital, which the UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) noted in a tweet, is a Hazara and Shia-majority area.

No group has yet claimed the attack, but affiliates of the terrorist group ISIL, or Daesh, have often targeted the Hazara minority in Afghanistan.
