Provincial officials have blamed Friday's attack in the Khansheen district of Helmand province on the Taliban.
Two suicide bombings Saturday targeted police and soldiers.
Afghan officials say at least five soldiers, four police officers, and some civilians were hurt in the attacks on an army convoy in northern Kunduz province and on police headquarters in Kandahar, to the south.
Officials in Kunduz said the suicide bomber used a stolen police vehicle to approach the convoy. They said at least four civilians were also injured.
The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack.
Officials in Kandahar said the attack there wounded at least four police officers and several civilians. They also said the force of the blast damaged several nearby vehicles.
