Alwaght- Militants attacked on Monday an intelligence agency training facility in Kabul, where an intense fighting with police is underway.
"Around 10:10 am, a group of armed attackers entered an under-construction building in (the) NDS training centre in (the) Afshar area of Kabul," interior ministry spokesman Najib Danish told AFP, referring to the National Directorate of Security, Afghanistan's spy agency.
"The fighting is ongoing and we have also launched our operation."
Nasrat Rahim, a deputy interior ministry spokesman, said the sound of large and small arms fire could be heard from the fighting.
Reports said at least five attackers launched the attack. Roads to the area were closed and dozens of police and intelligence officers were blocking access to the public.
There was no information on casualties.
ISIS terrorist group has claimed responsibility in a statement on its self-style news agency Amaq, saying two of its fighters had attacked an intelligence agency center in Kabul.
The group, which first appeared in Afghanistan in 2015, has claimed responsibility for a number of attacks in Kabul over the past several months.
