<p>The blast took place in a neighbourhood mainly populated by members of Afghanistan’s minority Hazara community, emergency workers and the bus driver said.</p>
<p>The bus driver told AP from hospital that at one point during his route, a suspicious-looking man got onto the bus a few minutes before the explosion hit the back of the vehicle.</p>
<p>The driver said he saw two passengers with their clothes on fire falling out of the back of the bus, while others escaped out the front.</p>
<p>Ambulance teams at the scene said that the blast was apparently caused by a bomb.</p>
<p>However, the spokesman for Afghanistan’s ruling Taliban, Zabihullah Mujahid, said a fire broke out on the minibus, triggering the blast.</p>
<p>Photos from the scene showed the burning wreckage of a vehicle with a pall of smoke rising into the air.</p>
<p>The explosion took place on the main avenue running through Dashti Barchi, a sprawling area on the west side of Kabul largely populated by Hazaras.</p>
<p>Afghanistan’s Hazaras, who are mostly Shia Muslims, have been the target of a brutal campaign of violence for the past several years, blamed on the so-called Islamic State group (IS).</p>
<p>Militants have carried out several deadly attacks in Dashti Barchi, including a 2020 attack on a maternity hospital.</p>
