The influx of troops is expected to lead to more battles and subsequently more deaths
The explosion happened around 7.15 pm (1445 GMT) outside the Kandahar provincial health ministry directorate and a guesthouse sometimes used by foreigners, deputy provincial police chief Sazel Ahmad Shairzad said. Kandahar was the site in late August of a massive truck bomb that killed 43 people and injured another 65, most of them civilians. Taliban denials of involvement in the attack were dismissed as the militants often distance themselves from operations that claim high numbers of civilians.
