Afghanistan
Taliban arrests 11 Daesh suspects in central Daikundi province
2021-11-17
[KhaamaPress] Provincial officials in central Daikundi province said that their intelligence personnel arrested 11 people who are suspected to be ISIS-K affiliates.

The officials said that the suspects are from Helmand
...an Afghan province populated mostly by Pashtuns, adjacent to Injun country in Pak Balochistan...
, Ghazni, and Urozgan provinces but added that further investigations have been started.

The Taliban
...Arabic for students...
have also seized weapons with the suspects.

It comes a day after the Taliban fighters in large-scale operations in four districts of Kandahar province arrested ten ISIS-K affiliates and killed three more.
Are those the final numbers? Yesterday’s reports were confused on the subject.
Provincial officials of Kandahar province said that four hideouts of the terror group have been eliminated in the province.

Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
of Iraq and Syria-Khorasan branch (ISIS-K) is now the only terror group that operates against the Taliban in Afghanistan and inflicts causalities on civilians people mainly the Shi ’ite Moslems.
So the Taliban keep saying, What odds that it’s actually true?
