KABUL — A suicide bomber riding on a motorcycle struck Sunday outside a soccer stadium in eastern Afghanistan, killing at least six people and wounding 13, an Afghan official said. Khogyani said the attack took place shortly after a pro-government rally ended at the soccer stadium. No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack in Nangarhar province. On Saturday, two intelligence service members, including the director of the Jalalabad intelligence department were killed, and 10 others, including both soldiers and civilians were wounded in multiple bomb attacks by Islamic State militants in Jalalabad. A local affiliate of the Islamic State group is seeking to expand its footprint in Afghanistan.
