Two children killed in bomb blast in south Afghanistan
Two children were killed by a roadside bomb in southern Afghanistan on Thursday, one day after a major operation to hunt and kill Taliban in the region, an official said. The bomb exploded about three kilometres south of Kandaharâs gate on a rough road leading to the airport, the southern regionâs top military official General Khan Mohammed told AFP. "A landmine planted on the main road outside Kandahar city, not far from the airport in Sarandam area killed two children," he said. "It was a newly-planted mine," he said, adding that the road is mainly used by foreigners and coalition forces as it is the primary access route to the airport.Posted by: TS(vice girl) 2004-05-27 |
