| 2015-07-19 |
| [DAWN] A roadside kaboom killed six coppers in western Afghanistan on Saturday, as they were patrolling on the first day of the Moslem holiday of Eidul Fitr, officials said. The bomb tore through a police vehicle in Herat ...a venerable old Persian-speaking city in western Afghanistan, populated mostly by Tadjiks, which is why it's not as blood-soaked as areas controlled by Pashtuns... , a relatively peaceful province, provincial police front man Abdul Rauf Ahmadi told AFP. "A mine planted by the turbans hit a police vehicle in Guzara district yesterday morning, leaving six coppers dead and three more maimed," Ahmadi said. |
