Northern Alliance takes Shul Ghar, capture Talib commander
Northern Alliance troops took control of Shol Ghar district and some units were just 14 kilometers south of Mazar-i-Sharif.
The NA claimed to have captured the senior Taliban commander for northern Afghanistan, Mullah Qair. But a Taliban official called the claim "totally baseless" and said that "We have no one of that name in our movement." Not anymore, anyway.
B52s continued bombing in support of NA operations at Mazar and near Kabul, concentrating on concentrations of Arab and Pakistani mercenaries.
