The army base on the outskirts of the provincial capital, also named Ghazni, was manned by Afghan special forces, witnesses told VOA.
Meanwhile, a separate car bombing in southern Zabul province killed three people and injured more than 20, officials told VOA. The head of the provincial council, Atta Jan Haqbayan, apparently the target of the attack, and his security guard were among the victims.
There were no immediate claims of responsibility for the two attacks that come as peace talks between Taliban insurgents and representatives of the Afghan government have for weeks stalled.
The so-called intra-Afghan negotiations, brokered by the United States, are being hosted by Qatar. Both the Afghan warring sides blame each other for the deadlock.
