KABUL, Dec. 1 (Xinhua) -- An Afghan civilian was killed and three others sustained injuries as a bomb blast rocked Uruzgan's provincial capital Trinkot on Tuesday, deputy to provincial police chief Mohammad Musa said.

"The bomb planted on a hand-cart exploded in a bazaar this morning killing a passerby on the spot and wounding three others," Musa told Xinhua.

He blamed the enemies of peace, a term used against Taliban militants, for the blast, adding the enemies carried out the attack to disrupt peace in the province.

Conflicts and Taliban-linked insurgency have left over 1,500 civilians dead since early this year.
