DHAKA: Six civilians were killed and some injured on Thursday when two bombs exploded in eastern Afghanistan, a local official said.

‘A bomb was placed in a car and second one was a roadside bomb, but it is not yet clear if they were remotely detonated,’ said Ahmad Zia Abdulzai, a spokesman for the governor of Nangarhar province.

Abdulzai said all the victims of the bombings that took place in the province’s Achin district were civilians, adding that an investigation has been launched by the police.

No one claimed responsibility for the bombs, reports The Voice of Russia.
