2015-08-02
[Tolo News] Insurgents this week caused extensive damage to five mosques in northern Baghlan province after setting them alight, local officials said on Saturday.

Abdul Rasheed Nadem, head of Baghlan's Haj and Religious Affairs Department said that the incident happened two days ago in Dand-e-Ghori village in Pul-e-Khumri the capital of the province.

No group including the Taliban has grabbed credit for the incident yet.

But the residents of Dand-e-Ghori said that Daesh is active in the area.

The police have meanwhile launched an investigation into the incident, said officials.
