KABUL, Oct. 11 (Xinhua) -- A suicide bombing targeting one vehicle of Afghan National Army (ANA) wounded at least six people including one soldier Saturday in Uruzgan province of southern Afghanistan, said a provincial police official.

    Juma Gul Humat, the provincial police chief told Xinhua that it occurred at around 12:30 a.m. (0800 GMT) when a suicide bomber with explosive materials strapped under clothes came by foot and blew himself near the ANA vehicle in Dihrawud district.

    "One ANA soldier and five other civilians were wounded on the spot," Humat said, "there is no report of death so far."

    No one or individuals have yet to take responsibility for the bloodshed while Taliban insurgents have frequently carried out similar attacks against interests of Afghan government despite around 71,000 foreign troops stationed in the war-torn country.

    Conflicts and spiraling insurgency have claimed the lives of over 4,500 people with around 1500 civilians so far this year.
