UN Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, has expressed outrage over the series of terrorist attacks in Afghanistan yesterday.

In a statement, he said the attacks in Kabul and Qandahar caused numerous casualties. He said those responsible for such crimes must be swiftly brought to justice.

Guterres said the deliberate targeting of journalists in the attack in Kabul highlights once again the risks media professionals face in carrying out their essential work.
