In Afghanistan, seven people were killed including six children during fighting between the Taliban group and Afghan forces near the central city of Ghazni on Friday.

However, no group made any claims of reponsibility while the Afghan government and Taliban militants have accused each other for the civilian casualties.

Authorities said a Taliban mortar attack struck the village while the children were outside, killing the seven and wounding two others.

It is reported that all of the victims belong to one family.

Local people said the children died in an air strike by Afghan security forces, which have been conducting an increasing number of air operations.
