At least three people were killed and seven injured on Monday in an explosion in Afghanistan’s southeastern province of Khost.
The cause of the blast was not immediately clear though the region, near the border with Pakistan, has long been plagued by violence.
Khalid Zadran, spokesman for Kabul police, said the explosion occurred in a hotel near the Spin Mosque in Khost city.
“Several Waziristani refugees and Khost citizens were killed. Three dead and seven injured were transferred to hospitals,” Zadran said.
