Parun, Oct 6 (SocialNews.XYZ) At least seven people, including women and children, lost their lives when a passenger car plunged into a ravine in eastern Afghanistan's Nuristan province, a local official has said.
The incident happened on Saturday after the car tumbled off a road and fell into the ravine in the province's Doab district, killing the seven commuters on the spot and injuring eight others, Xinhua news agency reported, citing Ghulam Rahman Haidari, spokesman for the provincial police.
