Kabul/IBNS: At least three people have been killed and over 20 others have been seriously injured in a series of explosions that rocketed a few locations in the eastern Afghanistan city of Jalalabad on Saturday, local media reported quoting officials.

According to local media, at least three explosions were reported in Jalalabad, the capital city of Nangarhar Province, and one of those had targeted a Taliban patrolling vehicle in front of a police recruitment centre in Jalalabad's Police District (PD)- 5.

Local authorities said that women and children were among the injured.

AFP reported quoting health officials in Nangarhar Province that three people had been killed and several others had been wounded in the country's first deadly attack since the US withdrawal had been completed.

Taliban on Aug 15 took over the Afghan capital of Kabul ousting the Ashraf Ghani government from power while its battle with Afghan resistance forces is still underway at a few locations in Panjshir valley.
