Troops kill nine insurgents in Afghanistan
2012-01-19
[Dawn] Afghanistan's government said its security forces have killed nine armed Islamic fascisti and captured 23 suspects in a series of raids across the country.

An Interior Ministry statement issued Wednesday morning said the operations over the preceding 24 hours in eight different provinces also discovered caches of weapons, ammunition and explosives.

the country's Defence Ministry said a soldier was killed and four were maimed in festivities with Islamic fascisti on Tuesday.
