There has been a massive explosion at the Kabul Airport, resulting in the death of at least ten persons.
The explosion was reportedly caused by a suicide bomber in a crowd near a gate manned by British and American troops, who have been in the country to evacuate their citizens and other Afghans who worked with them during the twenty-year-long occupation of the country.
The situation is tense, with chaotic scenes of people seeking safety amidst the confusion.
