According to local sources in Zabul Province, an explosion of a landmine in the Shinkay district resulted in one child dying and two others being injured.
The incident occurred on Friday, May 12, when the children were playing in the area.
Sources report that the landmine had remained in the area since the conflicts between the former government and Taliban forces.
The injured children have been transferred to Zabul Provincial Hospital for treatment.
It should be noted that unexploded landmines pose a serious threat to the lives of citizens, especially children, in the country.
Only a few days ago, at least three children were killed and injured in a similar incident involving a landmine explosion in Zabul Province.
