Defence Secretary Ben Wallace has warned that the situation in Afghanistan is likely to get more "volatile" as UK and US troops withdraw. The Tory minister was talking on BBC Breakfast following the brutal terrorist attack at Kabul airport, claimed by ISIS, which killed at least 90 Afghans and 13 US Marines. Mr Wallace condemned the group responsible as "cowardly" and said ISIS had no respect for human life.

       Mr Wallace told BBC Breakfast: "We always thought there would be risk things would escalate as we left in general terms.

       "Somebody wanted to claim they had kicked us all out, somebody would have wanted to grab the media attention.

       "And ISIS probably being the most ruthless, the mist cowardly when it comes to these type of attacks, but also the one that really has no regard for lift was obviously the prime suspect.

       "That has come out as predicted they have started to make operations, we say that tragically last night."

       He added: "But there could be other enemies, other terrorist groups who will want to attack us.

       "So it is going to get more volatile I suspect as we get towards the end.

       "That is why are troops are on a higher alert.

       "But it has been a very dangerous place alongside a humanitarian crisis all along."

       ISIS-K, a regional front of Daesh claimed responsibility for the bombings which the group said were aimed at "translators and collaborators with the American army".

       The brutal attack was condemned by the Taliban who are engaged in an ongoing war with ISIS-K.

       The Taliban said: "The Islamic Emirate strongly condemns the bombing of civilians at Kabul airport, which took place in an area where US forces are responsible for security.

       "The Islamic Emirate is paying close attention to the security and protection of its people, and evil circles will be strictly stopped."
