Afghan forces have reportedly suffered heavy casualties in Kunduz attack
2018-07-13
[Khaama Press] The Afghan armed forces have reportedly suffered heavy casualties in a coordinated attack by the Talibs in northern Kunduz province of Afghanistan.

Provincial governor’s front man Nematullah Temori confirmed that the Talibs have launched a coordinated attack in Dashti Archi district.

Temori further added that heavy festivities are still underway between the faceless myrmidons and armed forces but did not disclose further information regarding the casualties.

Unconfirmed reports indicate at least thirty soldiers bit the dust in the attack and at least 17 others sustained injuries.

However,

another official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said at least sixty soldiers have been killed or maimed in the attack.

The source further added that the attack was carried out by the faceless myrmidons belonging to the red unit of the Taliban

group.

According to the official, the attack was carried out on security posts between Dashti Archi of Kunduz and Khwajah Ghar of Takhar province.

The security and defense authorities have not commented regarding the casualties of the armed forces so far.

Kunduz is among the relatively volatile provinces in North of Afghanistan but the security of the province has sharply deteriorated during the recent years amid ongoing efforts by the faceless myrmidons to expand their insurgency in key northern provinces.
