2016-06-24
[Khaama (Afghanistan)] A Taliban capo was killed along with his six fighters in an kaboom in central Pashtun-infested Logar province of Afghanistan.

The Ministry of Interior (MoI) said the incident took place late on Wednesday night in the central capital of Pashtun-infested Logar province.

According to a statement by MoI, an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) went off prematurely while the Lions of Islam were planting it in Dawood Khel area, killing all seven miltants, including th commander of the group.

The statement further added that the Taliban capo killed in the kaboom was a prominent leader of the group in Pashtun-infested Logar and was identified as Abdul Rauf.

The Talibs group has not commented regarding report so far.

The Taliban gunnies and Lions of Islam belonging to the other bad boy groups are frequently using Improvised Explosive Device (IED) as the weapon of their choice to target the security forces.

The IEDs are the main contributors to the casualties of the Afghan cops but are also considered as a key factor in growing civilian casualties.
