AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Two Afghan policemen were killed when three separate “sticky bombs” exploded in Kabul, the latest violence to hit the Afghan capital in recent weeks.
The policemen were killed when the bomb attached to their vehicle exploded in a central district of Kabul on Saturday, police spokesman Ferdaws Faramarz told reporters.
A civilian was also wounded in the blast, he said.
Two security personnel were wounded in another similar bomb attack targeting a second police vehicle in a western district of Kabul, Faramarz said.
He said a third bomb also exploded in the city but caused no casualties.
In recent months, Kabul and several other provinces of Afghanistan have been rocked by deadly violence, including bombings, rocket attacks and targeted killings.
Several of these attacks, especially in Kabul, have been claimed by the ISIL (ISIS) group.
Journalists, politicians and rights activists have increasingly been targeted as violence surges in the country.
