Lahore, July 10 (ANI): The Taliban reportedly carried out an attack on the Indian consulate in Jalalabad, Afghanistan, in the wee hours of morning, killing six persons, including two Indians, and injuring eight others, reported the Daily Times.

A Pakistan TV channel quoted Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid as saying that his men attacked the Indian Consulate with bombs.
