At least 26 people have been reported killed and 18 others wounded in a mid-day explosion in the Afghan capital, Kabul.
Tolo News reported that the attack on Wednesday happened close to Kabul University and Ali Abad hospital.
News reports said an interior ministry spokesman confirmed the number of casualties.
The explosion is believed to have been a car bomb.
No one has claimed responsibility for the attack.
But the Taliban and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL, also known as ISIS) group have launched a series of deadly attacks across the country, killing more than 200 people in Kabul alone since the beginning of 2018, according to an Al Jazeera tally.
