[ToloNews] At least 7 coppers were killed and 15 others were maimed in a boom-mobile explosion that occurred in the city of Ghazni on Saturday evening, targeting a unit of the public protection forces, a security source said on Sunday. The explosion was followed by an attempt to storm the compound in Kotal-e-Rawza area in the city of Ghazni at around 7:45 pm, but all attackers were killed before entering, said the Interior Ministry front man Tariq Arian on Saturday night. The source said that the maimed have been taken to Kabul by helicopter for treatment and three are "at death's door."
