At least seven people have been injured in an attack on a convoy of UK military vehicles in Kabul, Afghanistan.

The blast targeted two armoured vehicles belonging to British forces which were attached to the Nato Resolute Support Mission. One of the vehicles was damaged in the attack.

There were no British casualties, according to the MoD.

The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack, saying it was in retaliation to air strikes in Kunduz.

However, the group did not mention Médecins Sans Frontières, whose hospital was hit by US air strikes which killed 12 aid workers and 10 patients.

The MoD has said the convoy was attacked by an improvised explosive device, while officials in Kabul said it was a suicide bombing.

A statement from the MoD said: "We can confirm that at approximately 9:10 this morning a convoy of UK military vehicles on a routine road move as part of the NATO Resolute Support Mission in Kabul was struck by an Improvised Explosive Device.

"There were no UK casualties."
