KABUL, AFGHANISTAN. (THECOUNT) — A large explosion has been heard in the Afghanistan capital near the U.S. Embassy shortly after midnight on the anniversary of the 9/11 attack on the United States.

It would be the first major attack in the Afghan capital since President Donald Trump abruptly called off U.S.-Taliban talks on the brink of an apparent deal to end America’s longest war.
