The attack on foreign nationals took place in Bamyan province of Afghanistan. Some foreigners visit the site with the remnants of massive Buddhist statues mostly destroyed by the Taliban in 2001.
Three Spanish tourists and an Afghan national were killed after gunmen in Afghanistan opened fire in central Bamyan province late on Friday, a Taliban spokesman said.
Another four foreigners and three Afghans were injured in the shootout, Afghanistan’s Interior Ministry spokesperson Abdul Mateen Qani confirmed.
The wounded included citizens of Norway, Australia, Lithuania and Spain, according to the information provided by the hospital staff.
This isn’t going to go well for the Taliban’s effort to increase tourism in Afghanistan.
Why? Just a few hours ago 3 people were shot at a supermarket in the USA. There is much more gun violence (Edited from "fun violence! Lol), and RANDOM gun violence in the US than in Afghanistan today.
If you think 3 gun deaths is too many and should ban tourism, I agree! Prevent people from vacationing in the US until it’s at least as safe as Afghanistan
America, putting the fun back into gun violence.
