The car packed with explosives targeted a police station in Lashkar Gah city on Monday. Most of the injured were civilians.
“It was a car bombing. It detonated at the gate of the district seven police station,” police spokesman Farid Ahmad Farhang said.
No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack but similar incidents have been blamed on Taliban militants.
Violence in Afghanistan has been on the rise in recent months despite the presence of thousands of US-led foreign forces in the war-weary country.
On Thursday, two children were killed and several others injured in a roadside bomb attack in the western provincial capital of Farah.
The United States and its allies invaded Afghanistan in 2001 as part of Washington’s so-called war on terror.
The offensive removed the Taliban from power, but years into the invasion, insecurity continues to rise across the country.
The US-led war in Afghanistan, which has caused record-high civilian and military casualties, has become the longest military conflict in the American history.
