At least two people were killed in an explosion that hit Afghanistan's capital Kabul on Saturday, Khaama Press agency quoted security officials as saying.

The incident took place in the vicinity of the 16th police district of the city after a magnetic bomb planted in a vehicle went off.

The blast occurred after a magnetic bomb planted in the vehicle of the water supply directorate went off, leaving two female employees of the directorate dead, said head of the Criminal Investigation Department Mohammad Salim Almas.

No group or individual has so far claimed responsibility for the incident.

The explosion comes 10 days after eight people were killed in a suicide attack in Kabul, for which Daesh terrorist group’s offshoot in Afghanistan claimed responsibility.
