An Afghan fuel truck was targeted by a bomb attack, killing at least 10 people and wounding other two dozen on Wednesday in north of the country.

A magnet bomb stuck on the side of the tanker blasted a hole in the fuel truck.
"When people gathered around it to collect the pooling fuel, a bigger explosion took place," said Parwan provincial spokeswoman Roshna Khalid.

It was not clear what caused the second explosion.
"Ten people are dead and 25 others injured," said Parwan governor Basir Salangi, giving no further details.
