Six persons were killed and two more were injured after a car collided with a vehicle heading in the opposite direction in Kabul’s Qara Bagh district.
On Sunday, a passenger bus from Kabul went turtle in the Shar-e-Safa region of Zabul’s southern province, killing the driver and injuring 19 others.
According to media reports, a traffic accident in Afghanistan’s western region of Badghis recently killed three persons, including a truck driver.

A similar tragedy occurred in Nangarhar’s eastern region, murdering two people on the spot. A goods truck and a motorbike collided, resulting in the incident.
There has been an increase in traffic incidents in Afghanistan, which can be attributed to a number of factors, including irresponsible driving, deteriorating roads, badly maintained automobiles, and a failure to follow traffic rules.
