Kabul, April 22 (TNS): A suicide attack at a voter registration centre in the Afghan capital Kabul killed at least 31 people on Sunday, officials say.

More than 50 others were injured in the blast which hit a crowd waiting at the entrance to the building.

The Islamic State group (IS) has claimed via its Amaq news agency that it carried out the attack.

Voter registration began this month for legislative elections which are due to take place in October.

The Amaq report said that a suicide bomber wearing an explosive belt targeted the centre, which is in the Dashte Barchi area of western Kabul.

Eyewitness Bashir Ahmad said many of the victims were women with children who were there to get their identity cards and register for the elections.

There have already been at least four attacks on such centres since voter registration got under way a week ago.

Sunday’s attack was Kabul’s deadliest since at least 100 people were killed in a district full of government buildings and embassies in January.
