Magnetic Bomb

A Pakistani drone, carrying seven magnetic bombs and as many UBGL grenades, was shot down in Jammu and Kashmir's Kathua district on Sunday shortly after it crossed into the Indian side from across the International Border, a police officer said.

Students grieving for their classmates massacred by the Pakistani Taliban on Thursday vowed to defy the militants and return to school as soon as possible.

A large explosion shook houses in Afghanistan's capital today, a Reuters witness said, but it was so far unclear what had caused the blast and whether there were any casualties.

At a time of growing tension over its nuclear programme and mounting belligerence toward the West, Iran reported on Wednesday that an Iranian nuclear scientist died in what was termed a "terrorist bomb blast" in northern Tehran when an unidentified motorcyclist attached a magnetic explosive device to his car.
