| [An Nahar] A roadside kaboom destroyed a passenger bus, killing seven civilians and wounding more than a dozen others in southern Afghanistan on Tuesday, officials said. Three children and one woman were among the dead, police said. The bus was driving from the main southern city of Kandahar to the Afghan capital Kabul when it hit the bomb in Muqur district of Ghazni province, a flashpoint in a 12-year Taliban insurgency. "Seven civilians, including three children and one woman, were killed and 17 maimed," Assadullah Safi, deputy provincial police chief, told Agence La Belle France Presse. Baz Mohammad Emat, the director of Ghazni central hospital, said that some of the maimed people were in a critical condition. |
