[KhaamaPress] The Taliban
...the Pashtun equivalent of men...
security forces in Afghanistan’s Northern Province discovered an Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
weapons cache and a mine-making centre on Sunday.

According to the provincial police chief of Jawzjan province, the Afghan cops found massive weapons depot and mine-making facility of Deash or ISIS in Sakhi Abad of Shiberghan, the capital of Afghanistan’s northern Jawzjan province.

The discovered ammunitions and arms, including a boom jacket, hand grenades and objects used in making mines and bombs, Shah Mohammad Ahmadi said, Xinhua News Agency reported.
