Kabul, Afghanistan (CNN) -- At least 14 people, including women and children, were killed in southern Afghanistan's Kandahar province on Sunday when the two vehicles they were riding in struck roadside bombs, police said.

The victims were riding in a tractor and truck when the bombs went off in Arghistan district Sunday morning, said Kandahar Police Chief Gen. Abdul Raziq. The blasts wounded three others, he said.

No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack.

"This is the act of the enemy of our people who are restlessly trying to kill our innocent people," Raziq said.
