At least six people have been killed with nine others injured in an incident of roof collapse in west Afghanistan's Farah province, a local official said Wednesday.
The mishap occurred on Tuesday night during a wedding ceremony in the province's Bakwa district, killing five children and a woman on the spot, said provincial director of disaster management authority Mohammad Israel Sayar.
The injured transported to a nearby hospital were in a stable condition, according to the official.
In Afghanistan's poor remoted areas, residential houses are mostly built from mud, making them vulnerable to natural disasters including rainstorms and flash floods.
