One person was killed and 17 wounded in three successive blasts in Kabul today. Officials said, among the wounded was an Afghan journalist who appeared to have been live-streaming the aftermath of the first explosion when a second bomb went off.
The events started with the detonation of a sticky bomb — a growing menace in Kabul, where insurgents and criminals slap magnetic bombs on the underside of vehicles.
The Interior Ministry said the charge had been placed under a bus carrying officials headed to the Kabul Education University.
In the immediate aftermath, two more bombs that had been planted by the side of the road went off.

In another incident eight police officers have been killed and seven wounded in a suicide bombing in Ghazni province.
A Provincial police spokesman said, the blast took place last night when Taliban hijacked a military vehicle packed with explosives and slammed it into the provincial Reserve Police Force station in the provincial capital Ghazni.
