The attacks were the first to strike the capital since an explosion tore through a bustling fruit and vegetable market in April, killing at least 23 people and injuring over 100.
The incident comes after recent air strikes by the Pakistani military against militant hideouts which killed at least 75 people, according to reports.
A month-long ceasefire between Pakistan and the Taliban, who have waged a seven-year insurgency, expired last month.
