At least three police officers were killed and about 36 people, including 20 children, were wounded when a vehicle bomb exploded near a police station in eastern Afghanistan on October 16.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Ariana News Agency-\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The explosion near the police headquarters in the Alishang district of Laghman Province also partially destroyed a nearby madrasah, or religious school, according to the spokesman for the Afghan Interior Ministry, Nasrat Rahimi.<\/p>\n

The attack wounded a further 36 people, mainly civilians, Rahimi said.<\/p>\n

Asadullah Daulatzai, the spokesman for the Laghman governor, told the media that “about 20” of those wounded were students. “The students were wounded by flying glass,” Daulatzai said.<\/p>\n

Six police officers were also wounded.<\/p>\n

No group immediately claimed responsibility for the incident. Rahimi blamed the attack on the Taliban.<\/p>\n

Afghanistan’s Interior Ministry confirmed the toll and blamed the attack on the Taliban.<\/p>\n

Afghanistan is currently awaiting results of the first round of presidential voting, which took place last month.<\/p>\n

Polling was marred by several attacks claimed by the Taliban.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
