Kabul: Explosion in Deh Afghanan area due to magnetic bomb

At least one police officer was injured in an explosion in the center of the city on Wednesday evening.
Police said that the explosion in Deh Afghanan area in Kabul's PD2 was a result of a magnetic bomb.

The explosion occurred in a crowded area in Deh Afghanan in Kabul's PD2 at around 7pm.

With the city on high alert following Sunday's deadly attack on a voter registration center that killed around 60 people in the west of the city, the explosions were reported during the evening rush hour as many people were leaving work.

However, no individual or group has so far claimed responsibility behind the explosion.
