JALALABAD/KABUL - A suicide bomber and gunmen wounded at least nine people, including a child and a woman, in an attack on a government building in eastern Afghan on Wednesday, officials said.
“Afghan security forces surrounded the building and are clashing with the attackers in a bid to counter the attack,” said Sohrab Qaderi, a council member for the city’s province of Nangarhar, adding that more casualties are feared with staff and other people stuck in the building.Much of Afghanistan is on high alert in the days approaching the election, the country’s fourth presidential poll since United States-led forces toppled the hardline Islamist Taliban in 2001.
“Do not allow election organizers to turn your schools and institutions into electoral centers, and teachers and students should not work as electoral staff,” said the Taliban statement. “We are committed to holding elections on the announced date, and such threats from the Taliban cannot prevent us from holding them,” the spokesman said.
