IS claims responsibility for a suicide bombing at a prosecutor's office in Kabul that killed at least six people and injured 13 .

The group said the assailant detonated his explosive-laden vest Monday as investigators and other employees were leaving work.

IS claimed the blast killed 45 people, a far higher number than the death toll given Monday by Taliban officials.

Extremists in Afghanistan have increased their assaults since the Taliban takeover of the country in 2021 .
