Two New Zealand aid workers have been caught up in a bombing incident in Afghanistan.

The two Red Cross staff were shaken but left uninjured when a bomb on a motorcycle was detonated outside a Kandahar hospital.

The Red Cross says the bomb was a targeted attack intended to kill, but only the fuse of the bomb detonated - causing minor injuries to two workers.

The organisation has suspended all its hospital activities for the next three days and staff have been evacuated.
