Kabul, May 4 (IBNS) : Two suicide bombers and a child were killed during a brief clash between the assailants and the security forces in southern Kandahar province, Afghanistan's state-run news agency Khaama Press said.

The report quoted local Government officials as saying that the incident took place late on Wednesday evening in the central Kandahar city.

Provincial police spokesman Zia-ur-Rehman Durani said the militants had disguised in Burqa and managed to take position near a bakery in the vicinity of the 4th police district of the city.

He said the suicide bombers started fire on a check post that lasted for several minutes before they were shot dead.
