| 2015-06-21 |
| [Iran Press TV] Talibs have captured a district in Afghanistan's northeastern province of Kunduz amid reports that the bully boyz are pushing closer towards the center of the province. The bully boyz took control of the Chardara district on Saturday evening following long exchange of fire with Afghan cops. "The shootout between bully boyz and security forces continued for hours during the day," district governor Zulmai Farooqi said. He also added that both the Talibs and the security forces suffered casualties during the fighting, but the exact number has not been determined so far. Also on Saturday, at least 14 people were killed and five others maimed when their vehicle hit a roadside kaboom in the southwestern Afghan province of Helmand ...an Afghan province populated mostly by Pashtuns, adjacent to Injun country in Pak Balochistan... , said Omar Zwak, the provincial governor's front man. No individual or group has grabbed credit for the deadly incident. However, there's no worse danger than telling a mother her baby is ugly... the attack bears the hallmarks of Talibs, who frequently use roadside kaboomings to target Afghan cops and their vehicles. |
