An explosion hit a mosque in the Spin Ghar district of eastern Nangarhar province during Friday prayers, sources said.

According to the sources, the blast took place in the Tereli area of the district, killing at least two people and wounding 15 others.

The wounded people were transferred to the local hospital for treatment.

The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (IEA) officials have confirmed the incident but did not provide further details.

So far, no group or individual has claimed responsibility for the attack.

The ISIS-K group has claimed responsibility for a series of blasts to hit mosques in the country since the IEA victory over the Western-backed government in Kabul in August.
