| 2015-11-10 |
| Clashes between two rival militant groups of Daesh and Taliban have restarted in Chaparhar District of eastern Nangarhar province, after a break of about one month. Colonel Hazrat Hussain Mashriqiwal, spokesman for Nangarhar police says two militants of Daesh (IS-Khorasan) group were killed in a clash with rival group in Sholani area of Chaparhar District on Sunday. Previous clashes had left dozens of fighters from both sides killed and severely harmed civilians. Both the Taliban and the newly emerged group of Daesh under the name of Khorasan have announced Jihad against each other. Daesh was operating in Iraq and Syria from several years but it emerged in Afghanistan about a year ago. Some local commanders of Taliban pledged allegiance to the Emir of Daesh or the Islamic State and opened a new chapter in Afghanistan war. Daesh wants Taliban fighters to unite with them under its black flag but Taliban want Daesh to leave Afghanistan. The disagreement is causing deadly clashes between them. |
