Five members of a family were stabbed to death in Afghanistan's western Herat province, a provincial official said on Saturday.
"The incident happened late on Friday night when unidentified individuals broke into a house, stabbing to death a man, a woman and three children in Khawja Surma village, Enjil district," Sabit Heravi, a spokesman to provincial intelligence directorate, told Xinhua.
The motive behind the deadly attack was not clear, and an investigation was still on to identify and arrest the murderers, the source added.
The province, some 640 km to the west of Kabul, capital of Afghanistan, has suffered insecurity in terms of theft, kidnapping and other criminal activities.
