The dead included five children, two women and five men. They were on their way from neighbouring Pakistan, the Paktika provincial administration said in a statement. Mohibullah Samim, the provincial governor, blamed the bombing on "enemies of peace who once again revealed their tyrant face to the public," the statement added. Afghan officials use this term to refer to Taliban and other insurgents who are engaged in a campaign aimed at toppling the pro-US government of President Hamid Karzai. The rebels loyal to Taliban and other militant groups often use improvised bombs in attacks against Afghan security forces and their Western military backers. There are about 140,000 foreign military forces operating in Afghanistan under the command of the United States. The bombs are usually planted on public roads and often kill civilians instead of their military targets. One such device killed nine civilians in Khost province, which borders Paktika, on February 26. Sunday's incident follows a string of recent militant attacks and military operations by the foreign forces causing dozens of civilian deaths. Nine children were killed on Tuesday in an air raid carried out by helicopters in the eastern province of Kunar. The strike was against insurgents who had attacked a military post but hit the children by mistake, according to military officials. US President Barack Obama and the commander of NATO forces in Afghanistan apologised for the incident. In the deadliest attack to hit Afghanistan in more than eight months, about 40 people, including many civilians, were killed in a gun and suicide attack by Taliban on a private bank in the eastern city of Jalalabad on February 20.
