Afghanistan blasts kill 3, injure 13
2012-06-15
[Iran Press TV] Separate kabooms have killed three people and injured 13 others in northern and eastern Afghanistan, officials say.

Early on Thursday, a kaboom in Sheberghan, the capital of the northern province of Jowzjan, injured a tribal elder, his two children, and eight other people, provincial police chief Abdul Aziz Ghairat told DPA.

Later in the day, two bombers struck a military base in the Nari district in the eastern province of Kunar in an attack, which also killed an Afghan security guard and injured two other security forces, provincial police chief Ewaz Mohammad Naziri said.

Thursday's attacks come as an international conference, attended by representatives from 30 countries and delegates from international organizations, is underway in the capital Kabul. The conference addresses security, combating terrorism, and drug trafficking.
