A small bomb exploded Thursday near Pakistan's consulate in Afghanistan's western city of Herat, injuring a policeman and a woman, police said.
The bomb, attached to a bicycle, appeared to have been detonated remotely, deputy city police chief Ghulam Sarwar Haidary told foreign news agency. "A bomb placed on a bicycle exploded nears the Pakistan consulate. One policeman, guarding the consulate, and a woman passer-by were wounded," the official said.
The bomb caused little damage, blowing out some windows nearby. It was not known who was behind the blast and there was no immediate claim of responsibility. |
