A bombing targetted a funeral ceremony of the deputy governor of the Badakhshan province at a local Mosque claiming the lives of at least 16 people from the gatherings, Al Mayadeen correspondent reported. 

The attack also resulted in the injury of 6 others, according to the Afghan news agency, Khaama Press.

The deputy governor was assassinated in a suicide car bomb attack two days ago by IS-K.  ISIS had earlier claimed responsibility for the car bomb attack, and wrote via the "Telegram" application that "its fighters succeeded in detonating a bomb, targeting the Taliban's deputy governor [of Badakhshan], Mawlawi Nazar Ahmad Ahmadi."
