Many dead in Afghan suicide bombing
Source: al Jazeera

A suicide bomber has struck an Afghan government office, killing 31 people and raising to more than 100 the death toll from a surge in bomb attacks.

Monday's attack took place as people queued outside a district office in Imam Sahib, in the northern province of Kunduz, to collect new identity cards and other paperwork.

Mohammad Ayob Haqyar, the district head, said a suicide attacker detonated his explosives in the waiting area.

"The number of people killed in the suicide blast rose to 31", he said. "Some of the critically wounded also died in hospital. Thirty-nine people are wounded."
