At least 2 civilians killed in explosion in eastern Laghman province
Local officials in eastern Laghman province say that at least two civilians lost their lives after a bomb blast in the province.
Sarhadi Zwak spokesman for the provincial government confirmed the incident and said it took place early Sunday near a shrine in city of Mehtarlam, capital of the eastern Laghman province.
No insurgent groups including Taliban have yet to claim responsibility for the incident.
However, Taliban and other groups’ militants most often use such bombs to target Afghan Forces but the bombs take civilian victims.
