'Six killed' in Afghan violence (2nd attack)
16 October, 2004

At least four people including a policeman were killed by a roadside bomb in eastern Afghanistan late on Friday, according to reports.

The blast occurred near a truck with US military supplies which had been set on fire by suspected Taleban rebels.

The US military also reported that two soldiers were killed and three injured when their vehicle was blown up by a land mine on Thursday.

The attacks happened as counting of votes began in the presidential polls.
