KABUL, Afghanistan - An Afghan civilian woman and girl were killed and another girl wounded in an explosion in Kandahar, July 30.
A stationary motorcycle rigged with explosives, detonated outside the home of a parliamentary candidate. The detonation took place as the candidate was exiting his house, but he was unharmed in the explosion.
"It's clear through these attacks that the Taliban want nothing to do with a secure and stable Afghanistan. The targeted killing of innocent civilians and election candidates continue to demonstrate the Taliban are enemies of this country," said Col. Rafael Torres, ISAF Joint Command Combined Joint Operations Center director.
