| [Khaama (Afghanistan)] Taliban have attacked a number of security posts in Bala Buluk District of western Farah province. Reports suggest that dozens of Afghan National Civil Order Police (ANCOP) have been surrounded by Taliban in this district. A policeman told Khaama Press by telephone that Taliban are about 100 meters away from them. Yelling for help, he said "if immediate support does not arrive to Shiwan area, we will all die." He further said that two coppers have embraced martyrdom and six others maimed so far. A reliable security source who wished not to be named said that around 50 coppers are encircled in the area. He added that Humayoun Dilawar who is the police commander there has escaped to the picturesque provincial capital. But the police commander rejected report about escaping from the area. Dilawar said he is trying to prepare support for the coppers who have been surrounded for three days. |
