A young man from Panjshir province was shot and killed Friday in Kabul by unidentified gunmen, local sources told Amu TV.

The victim, identified as Samiullah from Hesa Awal district of Panjshir, was attacked in the city’s 11th district while attending to personal matters, the sources said. The assailants fled after the shooting.

Family members said Samiullah had no known enemies and that the motive behind the killing remains unclear. They called on authorities to launch a thorough investigation.

The incident comes amid a series of targeted killings of Panjshir residents in Kabul. Just a day earlier, another man from the province was reportedly killed by Taliban forces, while a young Panjshiri athlete also died under suspicious circumstances in the capital.
