7 Children Killed By Taliban Bomb In Western Afghanistan
 Part of channel(s): Afghanistan (current event)

KABUL, Afghanistan -- An insurgent bomb targeting Afghan police using a fresh water spring to replenish their drinking supplies instead killed seven children grazing farm animals, officials said Wednesday.




The bomb, which exploded on Tuesday, was planted next to a spring in the Taywara district of western Ghor province, said provincial police chief Dilawar Shah.

He said the spring was located in an area that has seen recent fighting between insurgents and police forces, and added that the children accidentally triggered the device as they were grazing cattle. Shah said the bomb was intended for security forces that use the same spring as a water supply.

    • @SG6578 Yes, unfortunately Taliban crimes do not seem to effect the bleeding heart liberals and psuedo-humanitarians. Their moral perversity is blatant.

    • @SpeckFettGulag That's what I like to see... well not the actual subject matter. You get the point.

    • @DAFLYcc Yes of course. On the next upload that is awaiting moderation
      (18 Taliban militants killed in southeast Afghanistan) I am sourcing pressTV and also placing the google news search link so a user can click it and choose between hundreds of sources.

      Please take into consideration that most of the domestic news outlets syndicate AP and I cannot use them for copyright reasons.

  • Comment of user 'Lone_Wolf' has been deleted by author!
  • More gifts from the great religion of peace...how can you even support and belong to a religion where the followers do these kind of things, the elders and priests call for jihad, stoning of woman and all that crap? Even IF somehow God magically appeared before me as a muslim, I would say "no fucking way I'm supporting this idiotic thing"..
