A suicide attack on a foreign military convoy in southern Afghanistan today killed at least 11 children who were nearby, officials said, amid a spate of attacks across the war-torn country.
Sixteen others were wounded, including foreign and Afghan security forces, when a bomb-laden car exploded in the southern province of Kandahar, provincial police spokesman Qasim Afghan told AFP.
Kandahar governor spokesman Said Aziz Ahmad Azizi confirmed the casualty toll. He said five Romanian soldiers and two Afghan police were among the injured. There was no immediate claim of responsibility.
