KABUL, Aug 29, (TNS):<\/strong> An explosion occurred on a busy shopping street near the heavily-fortified US embassy in central Kabul Tuesday, officials said, killing at least four and injuring eight.<\/p>\n

“An explosion has happened near Massoud Square in Kabul. We have no more details yet,” Najib Danish, said a spokesman for Afghanistan’s interior ministry.<\/p>\n

An official in the ministry added that the blast happened outside a bank at a time when many security forces personnel were expected to be collecting their salaries ahead of this week’s Eid holiday.<\/p>\n

“Four dead and eight wounded people have been brought to Kabul hospitals so far,” Waheed Majroh, health ministry spokesman, told.<\/p>\n

The blast occurred around 10:00 am (0530 GMT) on a street lined with banks and shops leading to Massoud Square near the United States embassy, close to Kabul’s diplomatic area.<\/p>\n

It was the latest explosion to rock the war-weary Afghan capital and comes a week after United States President Donald Trump committed American soldiers to Afghanistan indefinitely.<\/p>\n

In May a massive truck bomb ripped through Kabul’s diplomatic quarter, killing about 150 and wounding around 400 people, mostly civilians, said a spokesman for Afghanistan’s interior ministry.<\/p>\n
