| [Tolo News] At least six hard boyz were killed in a joint operation by Afghan and foreign forces in Maidan Wardak province on Sunday night, local officials said on Monday. The operation was launched last night in Sayedabad district of Maidan Wardak in which six hard boyz including their local commander Mullah Din Mohammad were killed and five others tossed in the calaboose by forces, Shahidullah Shahid, a front man for governor of Maidan Wardak said. Afghan forces have also seized some weapons during the operation, he added. Militants have been active in some villages of Maidan Wardak often carrying out attacks against Afghan police check posts and NATO ...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Originally it was a mutual defense pact directed against an expansionist Soviet Union. In later years it evolved into a mechanism for picking the American pocket while criticizing the style of the American pants... supply vehicles. Violence has increased as foreign forces are to start handing over security responsibilities to Afghan forces in July this year. Afghan forces are to undertake security responsibility of seven provinces and districts in the first phase. |
