2015-11-06
The security forces have been able to retake control of a number of areas from the Taliban as the anti-insurgent clearance operation is underway in the southern Helmand province.

Embedded with security force members, TOLOnews correspondent Tamim Hamid said the forces have extended the operation to Marjah and Nad-e-Ali districts.

The security forces retook control of a military base recently seized by the Taliban in Chanjir area in Nad-e-Ali, he added.

According to the security officials, the operation will be extended to all embattled parts of the southern province – which is the largest narcotics producing province.

Taliban are reportedly financing themselves through drug production and trafficking.
