2016-02-25
[Khaama (Afghanistan)] At least seven members of the Afghan National Army (ANA) forces were martyred in the latest wave of violence across the country, the Ministry of Defense (MoD) said.

In a statement released to the media, the Ministry of Defense (MoD), said the Afghan soldiers bit the dust while suppressing the terrorist activities of the krazed killer groups in the past 24 hours.

According to MoD, the operations were conducted in Nangarhar
The unfortunate Afghan province located adjacent to Mohmand, Kurram, and Khyber Agencies. The capital is Jalalabad. The province was the fief of Younus Khalis after the Soviets departed and one of his sons is the current provincial Taliban commander. Nangarhar is Haqqani country..
, Ghazni, Uruzgan and Kandahar province of the country where heavy casualties to the anti-government armed snuffies were incurred, including the affiliates of ISIS terror group and other hard boys.

There has been a sharp rise in the casualties of the Afghan national security forces since they took full control of the security responsibilites from the coalition forces at the start of last year.

Meanwhile,

the Afghan cops have stepped up counter-terrorism operations across the country as the Taliban-led insurgency has been rampant during the recent months.

According to the earlier estimates by security officials, the Afghan army deaths stood at 4 service members daily on average which is mainly caused due to improvised bomb (IED) attacks.

However,

the number could be much more higher as the security situation has sharply deteriorated recently despite efforts to put an end to the ongoing violence through reconciliation process.
