2021-02-04
[ToloNews] At least ten security forces members were killed and 11 others were maimed in separate attacks in Sar-e-Pul
...a city and eponymous province in northern Afghanistan, population about 500,000. Demographically it is majority Tadjik and Uzbek. There are small Pashtun, Arab, and Hazara communities, of which the Hazaras mostly don't bother anyone...
and Uruzgan provinces, local officials said.

The first incident occurred in the Gosfandi district in Sar-e-Pul province on Tuesday night, said Asadullah Khuram, a member of the provincial council, when the Taliban
...mindless ferocity in a turban...
attacked a security outpost.

"Six Taliban were also killed in the clash," he said.

However,
a lie repeated often enough remains a lie...
the local officials and Taliban have not yet commented over the attack.

Later, at least four security force members were killed and three more were maimed in a car kaboom on a security outpost in the city of Tarin Kot in Uruzgan province in the early hours of Wednesday morning, provincial governor Mohammad Omar Shirzad said.
Khaama Press adds:
Uruzgan Governor Mohammad Omar Sherzad told media in a video clip, that Taliban
...the Pashtun equivalent of men...
Death Eaters detonated a boom-mobile at a joint Afghan joint security base in the Chinarak area of ​​Tirinkot at around 3 a.m., killing two soldiers, a policeman, and an uprising force member, and further three security force members were maimed.

He added, that fresh troops were deployed to the region for assistance and backup and currently the area is under the control of the Afghan government forces.

Uruzgan province is one of the most insecure provinces in the southern part of the country.
