Roadside bombs killed 14 civilians traveling in two vehicles in Afghanistan's southern Kandahar province close to the Pakistan border, police said.

"This morning a tractor and small truck hit roadside bombs in Arghistan district, killing 14 people and wounding three," police said.

Meanwhile a video allegedly shows woman shot dead for adultery in Parwan province;

A man who Afghan officials say is a member of the Taliban shot dead a woman accused of adultery in front of a crowd near Kabul, a video obtained by Reuters showed.
