2 children killed, wounded in an explosion in Nangarhar province
[KhaamaPress] An explosion killed or maimed two children in eastern Nangarhar
The unfortunate Afghan province located adjacent to Mohmand, Kurram, and Khyber Agencies. The capital is Jalalabad. The province was the fief of Younus Khalis after the Soviets departed and one of his sons is the current provincial Taliban commander. Nangarhar is Haqqani country..
province of Afghanistan, the Afghan military said.

The 201st Silab Corps in a statement said an improvised bomb, planted by anti-government armed elements, went off in Shabi area of Deh Bala district in Nangarhar.

The statement further added that the earth-shattering kaboom killed a child and maimed another one.

The anti-government armed bully boy groups including Taliban
...mindless ferocity in a turban...
have not commented regarding the incident so far.

Taliban and holy warriors of the other groups often use improvised bomb as the weapon of their choice to target the security forces and government officials.

However,
some men learn by reading. A few learn by observation. The rest have to pee on the electric fence for themselves...
majority of such attacks inflict casualties on ordinary civilians.
