Local officials said the operation was conducted on Sunday night in the vicinity of Marjah district. At least 800 various types of Improvised Explosive Device and two vehicles were also destroyed during the operations. The destruction of the four factories will have a positive impact to reduce the deadly roadside kaboomings which is one of the main tactics of the turbans to attack the government and security officials that also leads to civilian casualties. According to the officials, the Afghan cops are currently busy in a counter-terrorism operation in various parts of Helmand, including Nawa and Marjah.
