Kabul : Five Taliban insurgents, including their commander, were killed in Afghanistan’s Ghazni province by Afghan and NATO-led troops, police said Monday.
“Afghan and international troops raided Taliban hideouts in Muqar district Sunday night; as a result five militants, including their commander Mullah Salim, were killed,” provincial police chief Khayal Baz Shirzai told Xinhua.
Taliban militants have yet to comment. The insurgents who have vowed to intensify their activities against NATO-led forces had fired several rockets to Ghazni city, Ghazni’s provincial capital, last week.
