“We are able to continue with the programme in the way we have been running it, according to the timetable that we have got and that is what we are going to do. There were always going to be vulnerabilities to terrorism and opportunistic terrorist attacks.

“The Secretary General [António Guterres] is following with great concern the ongoing situation in Kabul and especially at the airport. He condemns this terrorist attack which killed and injured a number of civilians and extends his deep condolences to the families of those killed. He stands in solidarity and wishes a speedy recovery to those injured. This incident underscores the volatility of the situation on the ground in Afghanistan but also strengthens our resolve as we continue to deliver urgent assistance across the country in support of the Afghan people.”
