|
A number of Kunduz residents have claimed that three civilians were killed and seven others wounded in a night raid by Afghan security forces in Chardara district this week.
According to the residents the night raid was conducted in Yatim village on Wednesday night.
“My uncle, his wife and his son were killed. Only his daughter survived. She is wounded. Their house was destroyed and nothing was left behind,” said Abdul Hadi, a resident of Chardara.
“My sister and I were wounded and we were taken to hospital,” another resident, Ahmad said.
Meanwhile, the head of Kunduz Zonal Hospital, Naeem Mangal, said seven people were admitted to the facility for treatment.
“The wounded taken to hospital totaled seven. One of them was treated and returned home but six others, including four women, are in a critical condition,” he said.
However, Pamir 20 Division’s Brigadier General, Sayed Qorban Musawi, said the night raid was carried out in Yatim and Charmgari villages of the district where a number of insurgents were killed and wounded.
“The special night raid was carried out by the Army’s Special Unit in Charmgari and Yatim villages of Chardara on Wednesday night and six insurgents were killed, four wounded and six others were arrested. A big explosive-making center belonging to insurgents was destroyed in the operation,” he said.
Reports indicate that this is not the first time that civilians have been killed or wounded in the Kunduz conflict.
Local officials have said the main reason behind civilian casualties is that the Taliban militants are hiding in civilian houses during the operations.
