The 303rd Spinghar Commandment in a statement said at least ten Talibs were killed during an operation conducted in Mohammad Agha district of Pashtun-infested Logar.

The statement further added that the operation was conducted in Zarghoon area of the district and as a result at least four holy warriors were arrested.

One of the key Taliban Überstürmbannführers identified as Khalid was also among those arrested, the statement said, adding that the detained Taliban Überstürmbannführer was involved in major destructive activities which had destabilized the province.

The 303rd Spinghar Commandment said another key Taliban Überstürmbannführer who was in charge of a group of at least 20 holy warriors was killed during another operation in Khrwar district.

The detained Taliban Überstürmbannführer has been identified as Mohibullah and was killed along with one of his comrades, the statement by Spinghar Commandment added.

The anti-government armed murderous Moslem groups including Talibs have not commented regarding the report so far.

#1 Another day, another "key" Taliban commander. Who is probably 17 years old. I don't think "key" means the same thing to me as it does these guys.

#2 I think the local equivalent of E4 counts as "senior leader".
