A suicide bomber threw himself at an Afghan army convoy and blew himself up in south-eastern Afghanistan on Friday, killing a soldier and wounding 10 other people, police said.
The man waited for the convoy to slow down at a speed bump and then detonated explosives strapped to his body in an attack on the outskirts of Khost city, the provincial police chief General Mohammad Ayob said.
"One soldier was martyred and another seven were wounded in the suicide attack," army general Mohammad Akram Sami told AFP. Three civilians were also seriously wounded in the blast, the police chief said.
