Explosion in Kabul leaves 2 soldiers, 3 civilians wounded

At least four civilians were wounded in a suicide attack in eastern Nangarhar province of Afghanistan on Saturday afternoon, local officials said.

An explosion rocked Kabul city late Friday, leaving at least two Army soldiers and three civilians wounded, Khaama Press quoted officials as saying on Saturday.

The incident took place in the vicinity of the 5th police district of the city targeting a vehicle of the Afghan National Army (ANA) forces.

According to the security officials, a magnetic bomb planted in the vehicle of the Armed forces was detonated.

No group, including the Taliban insurgents, have so far claimed responsibility for the incident.

This comes as the anti-government armed militant groups have been widely using magnetic bombs in the city during recent months to target the Afghan security and government officials.
