Jalalabad Landmine Blast Wounds 11

Eleven people were wounded after a landmine exploded in Jalalabad early this morning, according to Afghan local officials.

"A mine exploded in Jalalabad city of Nangarhar province this morning," provincial spokesman Ahmad Zia Abdulzai told TOLOnews, adding that more police had arrived at the site and were investigating the incident.

The wounded, including seven policemen, were taken to a nearby hospital in the city, he said.

No group, including the Taliban, has claimed responsibility for the blast.

It comes after at least four people were killed and 10 others were wounded in a bomb blast in southern Kandahar province on Wednesday.

The Kandahar blast happened in the Spin Boldak district near an Afghan police checkpoint.
