| [Khaama (Afghanistan)] At least eleven civilians including children were maimed in an kaboom in Pul-e-Alam city, the picturesque provincial capital of central Pashtun-infested Logar province. According to the local government officials, the incident took place on Saturday evening in a populated area of the city. Provincial governor’s front man Salim Saleh confirmed that three children and a woman were among those maimed. He said the blast took place in Shahidan area of the city after an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) exploded on a roadside. No group including the Taliban gunnies have grabbed credit behind the incident. The Taliban gunnies and murderous Moslems belonging to the other holy warrior groups are frequently using Improvised Explosive Device (IED) as the weapon of their choice to target the security forces. The IEDs are the main contributors to the casualties of the Afghan cops but are also considered as a key factor in growing civilian casualties. At least 600 non-combatants were killed and 1,343 others were maimed in the first quarter of 2016, the United Nations ...an organization conceived in the belief that we're just one big happy world, with the sort of results you'd expect from such nonsense... Assistance Mission in Afghanistan said in its latest report. UNAMA further added that consistent with 2015 trends, ground engagements caused the highest number of total civilian casualties, followed by improvised bombs (IEDs), complex and suicide kabooms, as well as assassination'>assassinations. According to UNAMA, actions by Anti-Government Elements caused at least 60 per cent of casualties while Pro-Government Forces caused at least 19 per cent. |
