Roadside bomb ‘kills 15 civilians’

The explosion reportedly hit a pickup truck carrying civilians in the province of Helmand on Friday afternoon.
The office of the governor of Helmand said that the blast had taken place in the remote village of Khan Neshin.
Helmand is one of the most violent regions of Afghanistan, with Nato troops battling Taliban rebels.
The attack happened as the truck, carrying villagers, all men, to a nearby bazaar, ran over the bomb and detonated it, said Daoud Ahmadi, a spokesman for the provincial governor.
