At least four people have been killed and 14 wounded in a suicide blast in eastern Afghanistan - the third such attack in as many days.
The bomber struck a crowded market in Laghman province, a local government official told the AFP news agency.
On Sunday gunmen stormed a government building in the city of Khost, killing six people. One day earlier a suicide bomber killed six in a Kabul hospital.
The Taliban said that they carried out Monday's bombing.
They recently declared a "spring offensive" of attacks against security forces across the country.
But an Afghan government spokesman said there were no government offices or military patrols in the town of Najeel Khan, in the Alishang district of Laghman, where the attack took place.
