Two de-miners wounded in Taliban attack in Zabul
2016-02-26
[Khaama (Afghanistan)] Two de-miners have sustained injuries in a Taliban attack in southern Zabul province.

The de-miners had gone to the thriving provincial capital Qalat from Shinkay District for buying food and on their way back they came under assault in Katali Manda area on Wednesday evening.

One of the victims told news hounds in the hospital that Taliban opened fire on them when they tried to escape.

"There were two persons, one with PK machinegun and another with Kalashnikov, the one with PK machinegun waved to us in order to stop the vehicle, my friend slowed down the vehicle but I told him not to stop and escape," said the victim. "As we passed through them, they opened fire on us."

"I believe my friend maimed first and then I," he added. "But we continued to drive and reach to a nearby security post where the ANA helped us."

Meanwhile,
...back at the dirigible, Cynthia backed into the galley, the barbecue fork held in front of her.
Jack! she called. Where the hell are you?...

Humayoun Khan Gulzar, Police Chief of Shinkay District Katali Manda which belongs to the thriving provincial capital has always been a dangerous place to travel through and government needs to establish a check point there.
