(5 Oct 2020) Afghan officials say a suicide car bomber targeted the convoy of a provincial governor in the country's east, killing at least eight people.
The governor was unharmed, according to his spokesman.
The spokesman said that Monday's attack in Laghman province also wounded 38 people, both members of the military and civilians.
No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, but both the Islamic State group and the Taliban are active in the area and have carried out attacks in the past against Afghan government representatives, national security and defence personnel, and civilians
