Baku â€“ APA. A blast rocked Lashkar Gah, the provincial capital of southern Afghanistan’s Helmand province on Saturday morning, causing no loss of life, APA reports quoting â€œXinhuaâ€.

"An explosive device was placed near the police checkpoint in front of provincial police department in Lashkar Gah city and was detonated at around 07:15 a.m. (local time) but caused no causalities," said spokesman for provincial administration, Daud Ahmadi.
