5 killed, 4 injured by blasts in Afghanistan

Five Afghan militiamen were killed and four others injured when their vehicle struck a roadside bomb in volatile southern Afghanistan, said a senior military official on Thursday. The militiamen, hired by the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) to help with security, were killed on Wednesday in southern Uruzgan provinceÂ’s Taliban-dominated Charchino district, said Afghan General Rahmatullah Raufi.

Taliban spokesman Yousuf Ahmadi called AFP from Quetta an unknown location and said that the landmine was planted by Taliban rebels. “We had put the mine to target the foreign and Afghan troops. It was detonated by a remote-controlled device,” said Ahmadi, who often calls media to claim attacks on behalf of the Taliban.
