Taliban forces have arrested a suspected ISIS militant who planned a bomb attack that killed at least 12 worshippers at a Shiite mosque in Afghanistan, police said on Friday.
Iran's supreme leader also called on the authorities to punish those that killed civilians during prayers at the mosque in Afghanistan's Khanabad Bandar area.
The region's IS affiliate identified the bomber as a Uygher Muslim and said the attack targeted both Shiites and the Taliban for their purported willingness to expel Uyghers to meet demands from China.
