Roadside bomb kills, wounds 5 children in South of Afghanistan
2020-07-12
[KhaamaPress] An Improvised Explosive Device (IED) explosion killed or maimed at least five children in southern Zabul province of Afghanistan.

The 205th Atal Corps in a statement said the forces of Evil had planted an Improvised Explosive Device on a roadside in Qalat, the thriving provincial capital of Zabul.

The statement further added that the forces of Evil had planted the roadside kaboom to target the Afghan National Defense and Security Forces.

However,
ars longa, vita brevis...
the 205th Atal Corps said the earth-shattering kaboom killed three children and maimed two others who were later transported to health facilities by security forces.

The anti-government armed snuffies including Taliban
...the Pashtun equivalent of men...
have not commented regarding the incident so far.

Taliban and other armed snuffies frequently use improvised bombs to target the security forces but majority of such attacks inflict casualties on ordinary civilians.
