Kandahar, Afghanistan - A bomb in southern Afghanistan has killed a child and injured three others, a government spokesman said Monday.
The bomb was hidden in a motorbike parked near a market in Dehrawod district of Uruzgan province, Farid Ayel said.
'Bomb went off last night, killing a underage girl and injuring three other boys,' Ayel said, adding that the intended target was apparently foreign troops.
On Sunday, a suicide car bomber blew himself up in the parking lot of a police headquarters in neighboring Kandahar province, killing at least seven people and injuring dozens others.
