KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — Officials say a powerful roadside bomb has killed five civilians and two police officers near a police checkpoint in western Afghanistan.
The governor of Nimroz province, Mohammad Sarwar Subat, says the blast occurred Thursday as a vehicle carrying the civilians was heading for a court hearing in the provincial capital, Zaranj.
The governor says the bomb was planted by "enemies of the state" — a term used by officials to describe the Taliban or allied groups.
