A suicide bomber drove a car loaded with explosives to Ghazni's Ab Band district building and detonated it near the first gate at around 4:30 a.m. local time (00:00 GMT), TOLOnews wrote, citing Ghazni Police Chief Khalid Wardak. The Taliban movement has claimed responsibility for the attack, the report added.

The military clashes and terror attacks continue in the country despite the ongoing peace talks between the Taliban and the United States. The movement insists it won't start negotiations with the Afghan government until a timeline for foreign troop withdrawal is officially announced.
