KABUL, November 5 (RIA Novosti) - Three children were killed and six injured when an old shell they were playing with exploded in Kabul on Wednesday, a source in the republic's interior ministry said.
Blasts caused by old shells left over from years of conflict kill at least 100 children in Afghanistan every year.
According to official estimates, the country has a total of 8 million of unexploded devices and rounds of ammunitions on its territory as a result of almost 30 years of hostilities.
