Civilians, militants suffer casualties as heavy clashes erupt in Khost
|
[KhaamaPress] A clash broke out between the anti-government armed Lions of Islam and local residents in Zazai Maidan district of Khost province
... across the border from Miranshah, within commuting distance of Haqqani hangouts such as Datta Khel and probably within sight of Mordor. Khost is populated by six different tribes of Pashtuns, the largest probably being the Khostwal, from which it takes its name...
earlier today.
The local officials are saying at least ten Lions of Islam annd three civilians have bit the dust during the clash.
Provincial governor’s front man Taliba Mangal confirmed the incident and said a standoff is underway in the area and additional forces have been deployed to suppress the krazed killers.
He said a civilian has also sustained injuries during the festivities with the Lions of Islam but did not elaborate further regarding the casualties of the armed forces.
Mangal further added that festivities started after a large number of Lions of Islam equipped with light and heavy weaponry launched a coordinated attack on the district.
The anti-government armed Lions of Islam have not commented regarding the report so far.
Khost has been among the relatively calm provinces in East of Afghanistan but the security situation of the province has started to deteriorate during the recent months amid ongoing efforts by the Lions of Islam to expand their insurgency activities in eastern and southeastern provinces.
