The second attack took place near Jalalabad in eastern Nangarhar province, where three policemen were killed by a bomb planted in a rickshaw, officials said.
The Taliban claimed responsibility for the Logar and Jalalabad attacks.
On the other hand, in Kabul, a magnetic bomb planted in a flower bed near a university wounded three people.
The attack came a day after triple blasts rocked the capital on Sunday morning in which one senior policeman has reportedly been killed.
