Kabul: At least one civilian was killed and three others were wounded in an explosion near a mosque in the Afghan capital on Friday, witnesses said.
The blast happened at 1.45 p.m. in Qala-e-Fathullah neighbourhood when the Friday prayers were underway in a nearby mosque, witness Mohammad Aman told Xinhua news agency.
The explosion caused a big bang and sent a thick black smoke to rise above the scene. A suicide bombing was suspected, the witness said.
Troops cordoned off the area after the blast, keeping people from gathering at the site for fears that there might be a second blast.
