The death toll from bomb attacks on the Hamid Karzai airport in Afghanistan's Kabul has risen to 90.
Declined to be named, an official from the ministry of public health told the BBC that the number of people killed in yesterday's airport attack has risen to 90 people with more than 150 injured.
At least 28 members of the Taliban were killed in the bombings, citing an official, Reuters reported.
"We have lost more people than the Americans," the Taliban official, who declined to be identified, said.
Despite that, he said there was no need for the United States to extend its 31 August deadline to complete its evacuations and pull-out.
BBC said at least 13 US soldiers were among the killed in the attacks.
On Thursday night, two explosions were reported near the Abbey Gate of the airport, being used for evacuations at Kabul airport.
One blast was near the Baron Hotel, being used as a staging post by Western nations for evacuations.
An affiliate of the Islamic State group has claimed responsibility.
The bombings came hours after US and UK officials told their citizens to avoid the airport, citing an imminent threat from militants.
On August 15, the Taliban claimed victory in Afghanistan after taking over the capital Kabul, bringing to a swift end almost 20 years of a US-led coalition's presence in the country.
Since then, Afghan citizens have desperately been trying to flee Taliban rule despite it declared a 'general amnesty'.
