Five people have been killed in an attack on the British embassy in the Afghan capital of Kabul on Thursday in a suicide bombing, reports Reuters.
One Briton is believed to be among the dead, whilst 33 people were injured.
"I can confirm it was a British vehicle and there are some injuries. We are working with the Afghan authorities," a British embassy spokesperson told the news agency on condition of anonymity.
The Taliban has claimed responsibility for the attack, stating it had "targeted foreign invading forces".
Earlier this week, 45 people were killed in a blast in eastern Afghanistan at a volleyball match.
Last month, British combat troops ended its operations in Afghanistan, withdrawing the last of its troops from Helmand on October 26.
