امریکی کتے کبھی خواب میں بھی اتنے مسکین مسلمان شہری مارنے کا نہیں سوچ سکتے جتنے افغان مسلمان شہری ان خنزیر طالبان نے مارے ہیں
خدا اور اسکے فرشتوں کی لعنت ہو نہتے مسلمان شہریوں کے قاتلین پر، خواہ وہ کسی بھی نسل، عقیدے اور مذھب کے پجاری ہوں

KABUL, June 6 (Xinhua) -- Kandahar, the former stronghold of Taliban 450 km south of Afghan capital Kabul, has once again experienced a bloody Taliban-linked suicide bombing on Wednesday which left 22 people including the bomber dead and 22 others injured, police said.
The site of the blast is situated next to a local bazaar where hundreds of people visit for shopping.
"It was a motorbike suicide attack carried out on the road leading to Kandahar airport this morning killing 21 people and injuring 22 others, all civilians," Kandahar police chief Abdul Razeq told Xinhua.
The attacker was also killed in the blast, he added.
However, another senior police officer Rahmatullah Atrafi said there were two blasts which left 21 people including eight guards of a private security company dead and 50 others injured, all non- combatants.
The road leading to Kandahar airport is a crowded route used by both NATO-led forces convoys and civilian vehicles including cars and buses.
Kandahar airport is also home to thousands of NATO-led forces supporting Afghan security forces in ensuring security in the southern region.
Meantime, Qari Yusuf Ahmadi who claims to speak for the Taliban outfit in talks with media via telephone from unknown location claimed of responsibility, insisting eight foreign soldiers were killed in the attack, a claim rejected by police as groundless. According to police, there were no foreign soldiers when the deadly bombing happened.
Wednesday's deadly bombing took place just seven days after a suicide car bomb ripped through Arghistan district of Kandahar province on May 31 which had claimed the lives of five police and wounded six others when a man driving his explosive-laden car blew it up next to the gate of the local police department.
Militancy has been on constant raise since launching Taliban spring offensive code named "Al-Farooq" on May 3 this year in Afghanistan.
A Taliban coordinated suicide attack against a base of NATO-led force in the eastern Khost province on June 1, according to officials, had left all the 14 attackers dead in fire exchange and blasts and 20 civilians sustained injuries.
Almost the civilians bear the brunt of conflicts in Afghanistan as a total of 579 Afghan civilians were killed and 1,216 other civilians were wounded from Jan. 1 to April 30 this year, according to figures released by UN mission in the country, while some 3,021 Afghan civilians were killed in 2011 in the insurgency- hit nation.
