10 Taliban insurgents killed in Afghanistan

During the operations, carried out by Afghan police supporting by army and the NATO-led coalition forces in eastern Kabul and western Herat province, the joint forces also found weapons, the statement added.

The Taliban insurgent group, which has been waging an insurgency of more than one decade, has yet to make comments. Afghan forces and some 100 000 NATO-led coalition troops have intensified cleanup operations against Taliban and other militant groups recently but the insurgents responded by carrying out armed attacks and roadside bombings. – Xinhua.
