A car bomber has struck outside a Nato base in the Afghan capital Kabul, injuring three foreign soldiers and three Afghan civilians, officials say.
The bomber targeted a coalition vehicle near Camp Phoenix, where Afghan forces are trained, Afghan officials said.
The Taliban said it carried out the suicide bombing.
British officials have meanwhile suggested a reconciliation between the Afghan government and parts of the Taliban leadership within two years.
Ministers have previously talked of the need for the reintegration of Taliban foot soldiers and local commanders.
