In the meantime, local media outlet the Tolonews reported Friday that six people, including a civilian and five security personnel of the administration, were killed in the blast.
Roadside bombings and violent incidents have drastically decreased since the takeover of Afghanistan by the Taliban in August last year, and the Taliban-led caretaker government called upon all Afghans to return home and join hands in rebuilding their homeland.
