Two Suicide attacks in Afghanistan killed at least 15 people and wounded 33 on Tuesday.
Two attackers rammed a car bomb into a government compound near the western city of Heart, killing eleven people and 28 others, the interior ministry said.
Provincial police chief Sayed Agha Saqeb told reporters that the bombers were being pursued by police when they detonated the vehicle at the entrance to the Guzara district compound along the road from the airport to the city.
"The car was under our surveillance. It was ordered twice to stop but they didn't stop," said the police chief.
The dead included two policemen, an intelligence officer and six civilians, the police chief said.
Just hours later, four policemen died when three suicide bombers stormed their compound in the southern province of Helmand, a local government spokesman said.
Two of the bombers set off explosives strapped to their bodies and a third was shot dead by police guarding the Musa Qala police offices in the troubled province, Daud Ahmadi, the spokesman for the provincial administration told Agence France Press.
"Three suicide attackers entered the police compound in Musa Qala district of Helmand. Two of them detonated their explosives, one was killed by police," Ahmadi said.
