The suicide attacker detonated his explosives-laden vehicle close to a minibus carrying employees of Afghanistan’s intelligence agency, the National Directorate of Security (NDS).

A suicide motorcycle blast hit Kabul on Wednesday, killing at least four people and wounding other 29 in an area close to government ministries and parliament, ministry officials said.

"The number of casualties that police have taken to hospital is four martyred," interior ministry spokesman Zemarai Bashary told AFP.
Health ministry spokesman Ghulam Sakhi Nuroghli said that 29 wounded had been registered by a hospital close to the scene of the blast.

"And one of the wounded is in a critical condition," Nuroghli told AFP news agency.
The suicide attacker detonated his explosives-laden vehicle close to a minibus carrying employees of Afghanistan's intelligence agency, the National Directorate of Security (NDS), officials and witnesses said.

Witnesses reported seeing fragments of a motorcycle and human body parts likely to be from a suicide attacker.
Bashary would not say if the bomb targeted an NDS vehicle, but an NDS official at the scene said the minibus was carrying its employees to work when it was struck by the blast.

The last major attack in the Afghan capital came last month, when two suicide bombers targeted an Afghan army bus, killing five military personnel.
