Transcript for Car bomb kills dozens in Kabul

Reporter: And good morning to you, Amy. This morning in what is the deadliest attack in the Afghan capital in years striking during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan in the heart of rush hour, the moment the massive and powerful explosion caught on an office security camera. The car bomb ripped through what is meant to be one of the most secure and heavily fortified neighborhoods in kabul close to the British and German embassies killing more than 80 people and wounding 350 others. Among them German embassy workers and civilians. Officials expecting the death toll to rise. Security forces and medical teams quickly swarm the scene. They were ferried in makeshift ambulance, the force so strong it blew out windows with more than 50 cars destroyed. Plumes of smoke could be seen for miles. No group has taken responsibility yet. The Afghan Taliban released a statement condemning the bombing, both ISIS and the Taliban have been behind recent attacks in the country but the question this morning, how did an attacker evade the heavy police presence and target an area protected by ten-foot-high walls? So many questions. Horrific story. Thank you so much. That conflict is getting worse.
