Top Haqqani network leaders killed in Paktia airstrike
2017-06-19
[Khaama (Afghanistan)] Two big shots of the Haqqani terrorist network were killed in an Arclight airstrike in southeastern Paktia province of Afghanistan.

The Ministry of Interior (MoI) said the two top Haqqani network leaders were killed in the vicinity of Orgun district earlier today.

A statement by MoI said the two leaders of the terrorist network identified as Abdul Azizi and Ghalchakai were targeted in Shikhan area of Orgun around 5:30 am local time.

The Ministry of Defense of Afghanistan also confirmed that an Arclight airstrike was carried out in Orgun and at least five Haqqani network members were killed.

The anti-government armed bully boy groups including the Haqqani network and Taliban
...the Pashtun equivalent of men...
 have not commented regarding the report so far.

The Arclight airstrike was apparently carried out nearly a hour before a group of jacket wallahs launched a coordinated attack on a headquarters of the police forces in this province.
