The Mujahideen were armed with RPGs and heavy machineguns when they attacked the hotel at a popular Kabul recreation area near the Qargha Lake.
Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid claimed in a text message that the Mujahideen had stormed two hotels used by foreigners killing 25 of them as well as 14 "high-profile" Afghans.
