Kandahar: Taliban launched attacks on military posts in the Kalankecha, Moshan and Maywand areas of the Kandahar province, even before the US military withdrawal from five bases could complete 24 hours. But the Afghan security forces foiled the Taliban plot, killing 27 terrorists. Atal Corps of the Afghan National Army (ANA), informed that 16 Taliban terrorists were injured in the encounter.
Wednesday, around nightfall, military posts in the Kalankecha, Moshan and Maywand areas came under attack. An encounter ensued between the Afghan security forces and the Taliban. 27 terrorists were killed in the encounter. The ANA spokesman informed that no casualties were reported from the ANA side.
The spate of Taliban attacks continues even after the peace deal, signed between the United States and Taliban, in February. 30 people were killed in a Taliban attack, just two days ago. 146 people have been killed in Afghanistan, in Taliban attacks, in the last one month. The spate of Taliban attacks seems to have restarted after the US military withdrawal from five bases. In view of these attacks, negotiations between the Taliban and the Afghan government are not making any progress.
