A suicide attack on a minibus in Kabul has killed at least 14 people and injured several more, Afghan authorities say.
The victims were Nepali nationals on their way to the Canadian embassy where they worked as security guards.
The attacker waited for the bus as it left a compound, the BBC quoted police as saying.
The blast was followed by a separate bomb attack on a market in Badakhshan province that killed at least eight people and wounded 18.
The Taliban said it carried out the Kabul bombing.
The bomb went off shortly before 06:00 local time (01:30 GMT) on a main road leading out of the capital towards the city of Jalalabad.
