Blasts kill Nine Children As They Walk To School by Mshad662(m): 8:52am On Nov 03, 2019 |
Nine children have been killed in a roadside blast in north-eastern Afghanistan as they made their way to school. The children - eight boys and a girl aged between seven and 10 - accidentally stepped on a deliberately-planted mine, officials said. So far, no one has claimed responsibility for the bomb. "At 8.30am (04:00 GMT) this morning, tragically, nine school children were martyred in a landmine blast," Jawad Hejri, a spokesman for the Takhar provincial governor, told AFP news agency. Last May, a landmine killed seven children and wounded two more in the southern province of Ghazni. In February, seven children were killed and 10 more wounded in Laghman province when a mortar shell exploded as they played with it.
