Subscribe
A rocket strike killed two children and wounded six others on Saturday at a school in Afghanistan's eastern Laghman province, local media reported.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) — The Afghan news agency Pajhwok said on social media networks that the rocket had landed inside a school in the largely rural province.

There were no immediate reports as to what group might have been behind the attack, but the Taliban – a terrorist organization outlawed in Russia – has recently captured large rural areas across Afghanistan.
