Two civilians were killed and another was injured as a rocket fired by insurgents hit a residential area in Kunar province with Assadabad its capital 185 km east of Afghan capital city Kabul on Monday, an official said. "A rocket fired by anti-government insurgents slammed into a residential area in Narai district this morning leaving two persons including a woman and a child dead," spokesman for provincial administration Wasihullah Wasifi told Xinhua. Another child was injured in the attack, he added. He also blamed Taliban militants for firing rocket but the outfit fighting Afghan and NATO-led troops has yet to make comment. Taliban militants often carry out attacks against government interests in parts of Kunar province along the border with Pakistan's tribal area of Bajawar. Two Taliban insurgents were arrested in Narai district on Sunday evening, according to Kunar provincial police chief Awaz Mohammad Nazari.
