Key Taliban commander killed with his 12 militants in Ghazni province
2016-04-21
[Khaama (Afghanistan)] A key Taliban capo was killed with his 12 fighters in southeastern Ghazni province of Afghanistan, security officials said Wednesday.

The Taliban capo identified as Mullah Yousuf was killed during a special military operation conducted by the Afghan cops.

Sediq Sediq, front man for the Ministry of Interior (MoI), confirmed the killing of the key Taliban capo but did not provide further information regarding the exact location where the raid was conducted.

The Taliban group has not commented regarding the report so far.

Ghazni is among the relatively volatile provinces in southeastern Afghanistan where anti-government armed murderous Moslem groups are actively operating and frequently carry out insurgency activities.

The killing of Mullah Yousuf comes as the group has stepped up insurgency activities across the country since they announced their spring offensive earlier last week.

Meanwhile,
...back at the dirigible, Jack stuck the cigar in his mouth, stepped onto the gantry, and asked Got a light, Mac?

Von Schtinken stopped short, lowering the dagger and trying to control his features.

If you light that thing, Herr Armschtröng, he pointed out, his voice tense, we all die!...

the Afghan forces have also stepped up counter-terrorism operations in a bid to repulse and thwart attacks by the Taliban group.
