QUETTA: Three children were killed on Friday while playing with an unexploded bomb at an abandoned house in southwestern Pakistan, near the Afghan border.
Police official Shabir Ahmed said the explosion took place in the border town of Chaman in Pakistan’s Baluchistan province, some 150 kilometres (90 miles) from the provincial capital of Quetta. Afghan refugees had previously lived in the house but it was unclear how the bomb got there, he said.
