Nine Nepali men have been injured, six of them critically, in the Taliban attack that targeted the Kabul offices of the British security company G4S Risk Management Group Wednesday evening.
Six of them are critically injured, with three of them receiving bullet injuries, while the remaining three have minor injuries, a Nepal government source told Setopati.
One out of the three injured with gunshots has been shot in abdomen, another in upper left leg, and the third in lower back and lower knee.
One has burns in the lower leg, and two have head injury with one of them also having a laceration in the right ear. Three others have chest injury with one of them having shrapnel injuries in both left and right lower legs.
The six critically injured Nepalis are undergoing treatment at Bagram Hospital while three others are being treated at the North KAIA Hospital, according to the source. Those being treated at North KAIA Hospital are expected to be discharged later on Friday.
At least six persons were killed in the Taliban attack on Wednesday.
Twelve Nepalis deployed for security of the Canadian Embassy in Afghanistan were killed in a suicide attack in June 2016.
