ZARANJ (Pajhwok): Explosions and traffic accidents on the Zaranj-Dilaram highway in southwestern Nimroz province have taken the lives of over 30 people this year and wounded dozens more, officials said on Monday.
The 214 kilometres highway was reconstructed by India in 2004 at a cost of $150 million. Providing facilities for the transportation of trade goods between Afghanistan and Iran, the strategic road has been damaged by explosions.
Mohammad Hashim Noorzai, Khashrod district chief, told Pajhwok Afghan News blasts on the Khashrod-Dilaram highway this year . . .
