The unfortunate Afghan province located adjacent to Mohmand, Kurram, and Khyber Agencies. The capital is Jalalabad. The province was the fief of Younus Khalis after the Soviets departed and one of his sons is the current provincial Taliban commander. Nangarhar is Haqqani country..
Issue no. 277 of the ISIS-run outlet reported the death of an officer and an infiltrator, while in the 278th issue five suicide kabooms were mentioned in which "20 civilians and 13 security force members" were killed.
"These are ISIS activities, but they are supported by the Taliban and the Taliban is supported by Pakistain," said Ali Ahmad, head of the provincial council in Nangarhar.
These attacks have been carried out in Kabul and Nangarhar and the government has blamed the Taliban for them.
"We can say that many incidents have happened in a short time that has made our people upset and it is not acceptable for them," said Zabihullah Zmarai, a former member of the Nangarhar provincial council.
First Vice President Amrullah Saleh, citing a report during a meeting with security officials, said 81 mines were defused in Surobi district in Kabul, and he added that there were confessions of some arrested Taliban suspects, but he chose not to disclose their identity. The Taliban has rejected such accusations.
"The Taliban facilitates ISIS activities and provides people for ISIS," said Ahmad Zia Worsaji, a member of the media office of the first vice president.
But some politicians said that terrorist activities, including ISIS, are a threat to the country.
"It is a mystery for us too about why ISIS activities were covered and how they are linked with the Taliban," said Sayed Ishaq Gailani, member of the National Solidarity Movement of Afghanistan.
The Afghan government announced the defeat of ISIS in December 2019, but the group still claims responsibility for some attacks in Kabul and Nangarhar.
