Three civilians were killed and three others including a woman and child wounded when their vehicle hit a roadside bomb in eastern Afghanistan on Tuesday, police said.
The bomb was planted under a bridge in Alingar district of Laghman province before it ripped through a civilian van, provincial police chief Abdul Rahman Sarjang told AFP.
“The van was hit by a roadside bomb on a bridge in Alingar, killing three men and wounding three other people including a woman and a child,” he said.
Roadside bombs are frequently planted by insurgents but there was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack.
