Kabul, February 6 (Xinhua) — Three women from one family were killed and another person was injured in a gas cylinder explosion in Khost Province in eastern Afghanistan on Thursday, regional police spokesman Tahir Erar said on Friday.
The family used a gas heater for heating, but its cylinder exploded due to a leak, he said.
The injured man was taken to hospital in serious condition, the police officer added.
Residents of Afghanistan, where there is no modern heating system, often use gas cylinders or wood stoves to heat their homes in the winter. Gas leaks and explosions occasionally cause deaths. –0–
