[AfghanDigest] LAST 24 HOURS
- PAKISTAN ARMY ENGAGES SMUGGLERS ON THE BORDER – Members of Pakistan’s Frontier Corps engaged a group of smugglers who were reputedly attempting to infiltrate the country near the Talaab security post. The fighting was over quickly and 3 of the smugglers were wounded while 2 members of the Frontier Corps also sustained injuries. A source in Rawalpindi claims that 2 of the smugglers were carrying Afghan identity cards.
- UNAMA HEAD MEETS WITH THE TALIBAN FOREIGN MINISTER IN ADVANCE OF UPCOMING UN SECURITY COUNCIL MEETING – Roza Otunbayeva, the leader of the UN assistance mission to Afghanistan met with Foreign Minister Muttaqi yesterday to discuss outstanding questions that would be asked at the UN Security Council briefing scheduled for next week. A source in Kabul said that Otunbayeva mainly asked if any policy changes were anticipated and if there had been a shift in the case of women’s employment and education. Muttaqi signaled that no changes were expected and reiterated the regime’s adherence to Sharia law as the primary governing principle. Muttaqi used the time to press the UNAMA chief for inclusion in the meetings and said that the lack of Afghan voices at such meetings was not conducive to progress.
- 3 AFGHAN NATIONALS KILLED IN SYRIA AMBUSH – In a suspected ISIS operation, a vehicle was ambushed in the Homs District. The 3 Afghans were members of the Fatemiyoun Brigade, an Afghan Shia militia group sponsored by Iran. While no confirmation of ISIS’s involvement has been received, a spokesman for the al-Assad regime said the area has long been suspected of harboring an ISIS sleeper cell. The identities of the 3 dead Afghans have not been released.
- ARMS CACHE DISCOVERED IN PAKTIA PROVINCE – A house on the outskirts of Gardez was searched on Monday and several rifles, pistols, and grenades were discovered. The owner of the house was arrested and it was not clear if he belonged to any particular faction or group. Late last week, similar searches turned up arms caches in both Baghlan and Takhar that were linked to Resistance forces.
