| 2011-07-11 |
| [Emirates 24/7] Two servicemen and 13 civilians died in a series of blasts that rocked the outskirts of the capital of Turkmenistan last week, the official state news agency said. ... and if you can't believe the state news agency who can you believe? on Sunday. The corpse count was the first reported by the reclusive Central Asian state since Thursday's mystery kabooms, which members of the Turkmen opposition living abroad said may have killed some 200 people. Turkmenistan's TDH news agency said the initial blast went off at a fireworks storage facility, with the blazes then spreading to a munitions dump. |
