A U.S. service member was reprtedly killed in an apparent insider attack in Kabul on Saturday, November 3.
“Initial reports indicate the attacker was a member of the Afghan National Defense and Security Forces,” Resolute Support spokesperson Sergeant First Class Debra Richardson said.
“Initial reports also indicate the attacker was immediately killed by other Afghan Forces.”
A U.S. service member wounded in the attack was evacuated to Bagram Airfield for treatment and is in stable condition, Richardson said.
The attack comes less than two weeks after a Czech service member with the Resolute Support mission was killed in an insider attack in Herat province. The Taliban claimed responsibility for the October 22 incident, saying an “infiltrator” working at the Shindand airbase in the province opened fire on troops.
