KABUL:
A suicide bomber triggered explosives in the Afghan capital on Monday, police said, killing six people and wounding 13 more.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for Monday afternoon’s attack, which took place in the Qala-e-Bakhtiar area of Kabul’s southern outskirts.
Kabul police spokesman Khalid Zadran said “a person wearing explosives on his body detonated”, and one woman was among the fatalities.
“The injured were transferred to hospitals on time and investigations are ongoing,” he posted on social media platform X.
Taliban authorities said only three people were killed while a hospital source put the toll far higher at 20.
