A suicide bomber has killed at least 15 people at a funeral in the eastern Afghan city of Jalalabad.

A spokesman for the governor of Nangarhar Province, Attaullah Khogyani, told RFE/RL that 13 others were injured in the December 31 blast, which ripped through a crowd of people who had gathered for the funeral of a former governor in the Haska Meena district.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the incident, which follows multiple bomb blasts on December 28 at a Shi'ite cultural center in the capital, Kabul, that left at least 41 people dead and more than 80 wounded.

Islamic State claimed responsibility for that attack.
