At least 17 individuals were killed and nearly 40 others, including women and children, wounded in the blast that damaged several shops, vehicles and offices in the Jamrud sub-district, security sources told local media outlets.
The injured, some in critical condition, were evacuated to the Hayatabad Medical Complex and other city hospitals, a political administration official, Hidayat Khan, told reporters. The bomb was placed in a van parked near a crowded market.
Soon after the bombing near the assistant political agent’s office in Jamrud, where a string of military operations have been conducted against the Taliban and other rebel groups in recent years, security forces cordoned off the area.
