A suicide bomber in Afghanistan attacked on Wednesday in the country’s eastern city of Jalalabad, an official said, killing at least four people.
The attacker, who was on foot, detonated his explosives near the office of a construction company near the city’s airport, said Attaullah Khogyani, a spokesperson for the governor of Nangarhar province, of which Jalalabad is the capital.
The province’s police chief, General Ghulam Sanayee Stanikzai said several other attackers then stormed inside the company where a gunbattle is underway now. He says the casualty toll could rise further.
Stanikzai also says that US forces have arrived at the scene.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack.
