Several explosions have been reported around the country since the start of Ramadan on March 11, Taliban authorities that rule the country and have a stronghold on Kandahar for decades told AFP.
According to sources, the explosion that took place early morning on Thursday was targeted at a group of people who were waiting outside the New Kabul Bank branch in central Kandahar to collect their salaries,
