At least 21 members of two families died in flash floods on Tuesday in western province of Farah in Afghanistan, an Interior Ministry spokesman said.
Abdul Mateen Qaniee said women and children were among them, adding that another five suffered injuries.
The families had gone for a picnic in Kojar village in Pushtkoh district.
They were climbing a mountain when heavy rain and hailstorm hit them, Qainee said.
Flash floods killed 315 people and injured more than 1,600 in northern Afghanistan last year.
