Talibunnies cut power to Kabul
2016-01-27
With the intensification of military operations by government forces against the Taliban in Baghlan province, the insurgent group has hit back by cutting off imported power from Uzbekistan to Kabul.

Da Afghanistan Breshna Sherkat Chairman Mirwais Alimi told TOLOnews that the Taliban has blown up a major electricity pylon in Dand-e-Shahabuddin area near Baghlan-Kunduz highway.

According to Alimi, the damaged pylon can be repaired within a day if the area is cleared of insurgents.

This comes after local officials in northern Baghlan province told TOLOnews that a large-scale military operation was launched in three parts of Dand-e-Ghori area in Pul-e-Khumri city on Tuesday morning in order to clear the areas of militants.

Local officials said that more than 2,000 Afghan security force members are taking part in the operation.
