A suicide bomber has struck near the Supreme Court building in the Afghan capital of Kabul, killing at least 12 people and injuring 22 others.
Ministry of Public Health spokesman Ismail Kawusi said that the bodies of the dead had been transferred to hospitals.
Another source from the same ministry, Wahidullah Majroh, said 22 people were injured, including eight women and one child.
The explosion took place near a side door, which is used by the court's employees to leave the building, and not the main entrance.
No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack in the Afghan capital but Taliban insurgents have attacked the top court and its employees in the past.
