A security source told TOLOnews on condition of anonymity on Monday that the heavily-armed insurgents who stormed the Intercontinental Hotel, with a vehicle full of explosives, managed to access the facility without being searched at the main gate. 

The source said that the security cameras show that the vehicle and passengers were not stopped and searched at any point after entering the premises.  

Interior ministry said that the attack was conducted by the Haqqani Network and planned outside the country.
