A suicide car bomber¹ has killed at least three Afghan civilians² near a US military base in the south-eastern Afghan city of Khost, police say.

一个自杀式汽车炸弹在阿富汗东南部城市霍斯特一座美军军事基地附近爆炸，至少三名阿富汗平民被杀。

They say the attacker drove a minibus packed with explosives towards Camp Chapman, but the vehicle exploded near the entrance as guards opened fire.

There were no coalition³ casualties, but six Afghans including three guards and three passers-by were injured.

In a statement, the Taliban said they carried out the attack.

Khost, which borders the volatile⁴（不稳定的） Pakistani region of Waziristan, has recently seen a dramatic rise in violence.

In October, a suicide bomber killed at least 20 people, three of them Nato soldiers, in the city.

In June, a suicide bomber killed 21 people - including three US troops and a local interpreter.

The Taliban-affiliated Haqqani network regularly mounts large-scale attacks and suicide bombings in the area.
