    (IANS)


    A suicide-bomber in southern Afghanistan blew himself up while putting on a vest of explosives, an official said.

    The explosion occurred in a house in Gereshk town in Helmand province Wednesday night. 'The blast also wounded a child,' a spokesperson for the local administration said.

    Helmand is known to be a major Taliban stronghold and much of the fighting between NATO and Taliban forces is taking place in the province.
