Blast ‘kills 10’ Afghan labourers

breaking news

At least 10 road workers have been killed in southern Afghanistan when their truck hit a roadside bomb, officials say.

No group has said it carried out the attack. Last week gunmen shot dead 35 highway workers in eastern Paktia province.

Road workers are frequently targeted by Taliban militants.

The Taliban recently declared a “spring offensive” of attacks. This is the fourth attack in as many days.
