Meanwhile, 10 Talebans were killed and eight others were wounded after Afghanistan Air Force (AAF) “targeted their stronghold in Qaisar district of Faryab province” on Wednesday night.
“27 Taleban fighters including 2 of their commanders were killed in Nawa, Nahre-Saraj and Garmseer districts of Helmand province as a result of ANDSF (Afghan National Defence and Security Forces) oppositions. Additionally, some of their vehicles and weapons were destroyed by ANA (Afghan National Army),” the ministry tweeted.

“6 Taleban fighters were killed and 6 wounded during #ANDSF operations in Arghandab district of Kandahar province last night. Additionally, 2 strongholds and a large number of their weapons and ammunition were destroyed,” the ministry tweeted.
Recently, Afghanistan has witnessed a sharp rise in violence.
The country’s forces have launched raids on Taleban hideouts and killed several of fighters in recent weeks.
Data from the Afghanistan Independent Human Rights Commission shows that in 2020, over 2,000 people were killed in incidents, for which no one claimed responsibility, according to TOLO News.
Moreover, the US-Taleban deal, signed last year in February that calls for the full withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan by the end of May, has resulted in an increase in violence.
