![]() The Ministry of Interior (MoI) said the operations were jointly conducted by the Afghan National Security Forces on Saturday evening. "Yesterday evening, Afghan National Security Forces conducted an anti-terrorism joint operation to clear some of the areas from holy warriors and enemies of peace and stability of Afghanistan," a statement by MoI said. The statement further added that the operation was conducted in Gogardak region, Shabarghan city capital of Jowzjan province, as a result 15 armed holy warriors were killed and 10 others were maimed. The clearance operation still continues against armed bully boyz in Shabarghan City, MoI added. "In a separate report, yesterday evening, Afghan National Police attacked Taliban’s sanctuaries in Nikroz village, Khas Oruzgan district of Oruzgan province, as a result four armed Taliban were killed and one was maimed," MoI said, adding that two Afghan National Policemen were maimed during the operation. The anti-government armed krazed killer groups have not commented regarding the reports so far. Both Jawzjan and Uruzgan provinces are among the relatively voalatile provinces where anti-government armed holy warriors are active in its remote districts. The holy warriors frequently carry out insurgency activities which comes amid rampant Taliban-led insurgency as the group announced its spring offensive earlier this month. |
