KABUL, Afghanistan — A bomb blast targeted lawmakers touring a factory north of Kabul Tuesday, killing at least 28 people, including five parliamentarians, a lawmaker said.

The blast was one of Afghanistan’s bloodiest attacks since the fall of the Taliban in 2001.

The bomb blast went off outside a sugar factory in the northern province of Baghlan as the lawmakers were about to go inside. The blast struck school children, Afghan elders and government officials who had gathered to greet the visiting delegation of 18 lawmakers from the lower house, officials said.
