Kabul, Afghanistan (CNN) — Five U.S. soldiers were wounded Thursday when a suicide bomber attacked a U.S. base, an Afghan official said.

The attacker detonated the bomb about 9 p.m. while in the “sleeping area” on the base, said Paktia province spokesman Roullah Samoun. It is unclear how the bomber got onto the base, but preliminary investigations show the attacker wore an Afghan border police uniform, Samoun said.
