Six civilians are reported killed in Oruzgan Province in Afghanistan after a mine went off in close vicinity to a passing passenger bus at the approaches to Tarin. Attacks of this kind are commonly used by terrorists against coalition forces, but much more often they kill civilians. According to the UN, nearly 2.5 thousand civilians were killed in Afghanistan last year.
