Kabul's Poorest Killed, Injured in Blast While Working on Street
Kabul's Poorest Killed, Injured in Blast While Working on Street An 8-year-old child was killed on Sunday in a blast in Kabul. He was collecting money from motorists after smoking pecan for them as a good omen to ward off evil and ill fortune. Surab, 8, worked on Kabul streets with two brothers every day. Sometimes they sold bubble gum. His mother said she sent her son from Parwan to Kabul to work to win bread for their family as they are faced with a poor economic condition. One shopkeeper, Abdul Sami, said Suhrab borrowed 10 Afs from him hours before his death on that day.
