At least ten people were killed and 42 others were wounded in a car bomb attack in Kabul on Thursday morning, the Ministry of Interior (MOI) said in a statement.

The attack took place at around 10:10 am local time after a suicide car bomber detonated his explosive close to a National Directorate of Security (NDS) checkpoint in the heavily fortified area in downtown Kabul.

The ministry did not provide further details about the attack.

The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack and claimed to have targeted a foreign forces convoy which was entering an NDS facility in the area.
