ASADABAD (AFP/Reuters) - Afghan authorities on Sunday alleged that hundreds of rockets had been fired into Afghanistan from Pakistan in recent days, killing a child and forcing hundreds to flee their homes. Interior ministry spokesman Siddiq Siddiqui did not specify who was behind the cross-border shelling but added: We call on Pakistan, whoever is behind the attacks, to prevent it immediately. He said that more than 340 rockets had been fired into Afghanistan over the past four days, mostly landing in villages and farmland in the province of Kunar. Fazilullah Wahidy, the Kunar provincial governor, separately told AFP that at least one boy had been killed in the attacks. About 500 rockets and shells have been fired since Wednesday into eastern Kunar from a base in Pakistan territory, destroying six homes, two mosques and displacing more than 100 people in the provinces Dangam district, provincial governor Fazlullah Wahidi. I strongly condemn this senseless act by the Pakistan army and it must immediately be stopped, Wahidi told Reuters. He said at least 30 shells had landed in neighbouring Nuristan province. Cross-border shelling incidents frequently cause tension between Afghanistan and Pakistan. Dangam is a mountainous area bordering Pakistans lawless tribal areas. Pakistan has repeatedly blamed Afghanistan for giving safe haven to militants on its side of the border, particularly in Kunar province, leaving it vulnerable to counter-attack when it chases them out of its own tribal areas.
