JALALABAD, Afghanistan, June 8 (Xinhua) -- A bomb attack rocked near a local radio office in Jalalabad city, capital of Afghanistan's eastern province of Nangarhar on Wednesday, leaving no casualties, sources and witnesses said.
"Two hand grenades were hurled on a building where a local radio and a media compound are located but the blasts caused no loss of lives or property," a security source told Xinhua, adding the security guards also fired several warning shots after the blasts.
The security forces have launched a massive manhunt in the area to nab the culprits, the official said anonymously, adding "the security forces launched an investigation into the incident."
No group has claimed responsibility for the attack yet.
Media workers and reporters have frequently come under attack in the militancy-hit country. On Sunday, a U.S. photographer and his Afghan translator were killed after militants fired on an Afghan army convoy in southern Helmand province.
The Taliban-led insurgency has been rampant since early April when the militant group launched its annual rebel offensive in different areas of the country.
The Taliban urged civilians to stay away from official gatherings, military convoys and centers regarded as the legitimate targets by militants besides warning people not to support the government.
