| [Tolo News] At least one civilian was killed and five others were maimed in a kaboom on Monday in western Herat city, officials said. The incident happened when a police convoy was struck by an bomb planted in a rubbish bin near a police check post, Delawar Shah Delawar, acting police chief of Herat told TOLOnews. The maimed were rushed to a nearby hospital in the city. No groups including the Taliban have taken responsibly for the incident. Militants use improvised bombs to target Afghan and Nato forces, but most of the victims often civilians. More than 2043 non-combatants were killed and 3571 others were maimed in 2010, Afghan Ministry of Interior Affairs said on Sunday. |
