A large explosion was heard in the Afghan capital, after which smoke was seen rising from a part of eastern Kabul near a neighbourhood housing the US Embassy and other diplomatic missions
Security forces are seen near the site in which a suicide bomber blew himself up in the centre of Kabul, Afghanistan on September 5, 2019.
Interior Ministry spokesman Nasrat Rahimi said the car bomb exploded on a main road, destroying at least 12 vehicles, and police quickly sealed off the area. The blast appeared to target a checkpoint in Shashdarak. The attacks are again raising questions in Kabul and in Washington about the dangers of trusting the Taliban to make peace after nearly 18 years of fighting.
Thursday's blast occurred as Afghan presidential adviser Waheed Omer was speaking to reporters, warning that difficult days were ahead and describing the US-Taliban deal as moving with "excessive speed."
