Afghanistan police say at least 10 people are dead and more than 37 wounded after a nearly 10-hour long attack on the American University of Afghanistan in Kabul ended Thursday.

The dead include seven students, two police officers and a security guard. A foreign teacher was among the injured, Interior Ministry spokesman Sediq Sediqqi said. More than 700 staff and students were rescued after being trapped inside the university complex, Kabul Police Chief Abdul Rahman Rahimi added.

The attack began with an explosion around 6:30 pm Wednesday local time and set off about an hour of gunfire as security forces responded. Officials described the assault as a "complex attack." Police officials said at least two attackers had been killed.

One student trapped on campus told Reuters news agency by phone that he was holed up inside a classroom with some other people. He said they were hearing bursts of gunfire outside.

A student who escaped, Massoud Hossaini, told the Associated Press that he, too, had been trapped with some other students in a classroom, where they barricaded themselves inside by pushing chairs and desks against the door. He said they eventually managed to escape through the university's northern emergency gate.

There are no claims of responsibility from militant groups. The U.S. State Department condemned the violence and called it an "attack on the future of Afghanistan."阿富汗警方說,位於喀布爾的阿富汗美國大學遭遇的近10小時襲擊星期四已經結束,至少有10人喪生,超過37人受傷。

阿富汗內政部發言人塞迪奇說,死者包括七名學生、兩名警官和一名警衛。一位外教也受了傷。喀布爾警方負責人拉希米說,被困在校園內的700多名教職員工和學生已經獲救。

襲擊開始於當地時間週三晚上6點半左右,安全部隊作出迴應後,交火持續了近一個小時。有關官員形容這次襲擊“錯綜複雜”。警方說,至少有2名襲擊者被打死。

一位被困在校園內的學生曾通過電話對路透社說,他和其他人藏在一間教室內,可以聽到外面傳來陣陣槍聲。

從學校逃出來的學生胡賽尼對美聯社說,他一度也和其他學生被困在一間教室內,他們用桌椅頂着門把自己防護起來,最後通過學校北邊的應急大門設法逃脫。

現在還沒有激進組織聲稱對襲擊負責。美國國務院譴責這次暴力襲擊,稱它是對“阿富汗未來的襲擊”。
