At least six people were killed in a suicide bomb attack near the Afghan Foreign Ministry in Kabul on Monday.
It was the second time this year that there has been an attack near the ministry.
According to Khalid Zadran, a spokesman for the Kabul police chief, Taliban security forces spotted the bomber before he was able to reach a checkpoint at the Malik Asghar intersection, near the ministry.
The attacker then detonated his explosives, killing at least six civilians.
Three members of the Taliban security forces were among those wounded in the attack.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the bombing but the Daesh terrorist group has been cited for the bombing over increased attacks in the country.
In mid-January, a Daesh attack near the ministry also killed five people and wounded several others.
