KABUL, Afghanistan – A child died from wounds suffered in an improvised explosive device blast in Kandahar province today.
Another child was seriously wounded in the attack that occurred in the Maiwand district at approximately 10 a.m.
“Innocent civilians, including women and children, continue to die at the hands of these careless insurgent attacks,” said Col. Rafael Torres, ISAF Joint Command Combined Joint Operations Center director. “It appears the new Taliban code of conduct calling to end indiscriminate attacks on civilians has not filtered down to the lower level Taliban fighters.”
