[Khaama Press] The anti-government armed murderous Moslems have suffered casualties in three separate premature bombings in southern Zabul and central Maidan Wardak provinces of Afghanistan.
The Ministry of Defense of Afghanistan in its latest operational update has stated that the kabooms took place in the past twenty four hours in different locations.
According to MoD, at least two murderous Moslems were killed and two others were maimed in an kaboom in Syedabad district of Wardak province.
The ministry further added that another Death Eater was killed after his explosives went off prematurely in Arghandab district of Zabul province.
In another incident in Shamulz district of Zabul, at least three murderous Moslems were killed and another Death Eater was maimed, MoD added.
The Ministry of Defense says the three separate incidents took place while the murderous Moslems were busy planting roadside kabooms.
The anti-government armed Death Eater groups frequently use explosives materials for the roadside kaboomings and boom-mobileings to target the government staff and security personnel.
However, facts are stubborn; statistics are more pliable... in majority of such incidents the ordinary civilians are targeted besides such bombings incur casualties to the security personnel and in some cases the Talibs themselves are killed or maimed.

At least four Taliban insurgents were killed in a clash with security forces in northern Baghlan province on Saturday night, local officials confirmed.
In addition, six other insurgents were wounded.
The clash took place in Surkh Kotal village of Pul-e-Khumri after dozens of Taliban insurgents attacked a security check post, a spokesman for provincial police chief Zabi Shuja said.
“The Taliban retreated after several hours of clashes,” he said.
However, the official did not provide further details about the clash nor of casualties among the security forces.
[Al Ahram] Boko Haram ... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality... fighters briefly overran a town in northeast Nigeria ... a particularly crimson stretch of Islam's bloody border... in a raid to loot food supplies, military and civilian militia sources said on Sunday, in the latest attack in the restive region.
The attack happened on Saturday evening when a large number of jihadists stormed Magumeri, some 50 kilometres (30 miles) north of the Borno state capital, Maiduguri.
The town and surrounding area have been attacked before by fighters loyal to the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more.

In July, at least 69 people -- most of them soldiers and civilian militia members -- were killed in an ambush on a heavily armed convoy escorting an oil exploration team.
"It was a huge invasion," a military source in Maiduguri told AFP of Saturday night's attack.
"They had heavy weapons and our troops were overwhelmed. After a fierce battle, they were forced to withdraw.
"Reinforcements were later deployed and they engaged the terrorists, pushing them out of the town, which is now under the full control of the Nigerian military.
"Civilians who had fled into the bushes have begun returning to their homes."
A member of the Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF) added: "Boko Haram briefly took over Magumeri yesterday (Saturday) after pushing soldiers out of the town.
"Civilians fled as well. But later more soldiers were sent and they took over the town from Boko Haram."
Boko Haram was only in the town for several hours until early Sunday, he added.
"This is a classic Boko Haram attack: to loot supplies and assert their presence. Even if troops hadn't deployed they would have withdrawn after looting and destruction," the CJTF member said.

[Al Ahram] An Egyptian peacekeeper with the UN mission in the Central African Republic (CAR) was killed and three others maimed Sunday in an ambush, authorities said.
The soldier died in an attack carried out by "armed elements affiliated with the anti-Balaka movement," the UN peacekeeping mission MINUSCA said.
Anti-Balaka were nominally Christian militias organised in response to the bloody sectarian violence unleashed by Moslem-majority Seleka ...a 'mainly' Moslem rebel force in the Central African Republic that overthrew the govt, imposed a regime of rapine and looting on the country's non-Moslem population, and was then tossed by France. They still exist, getting funding and weapons from somewhere or other, licking their wounds, complaining about the oppression of Moslems, and occasionally raping and looting someone... rebels in 2013.
Mired in poverty but rich in minerals, CAR has been battered by a three-year conflict between the rival militias that began after then-president Francois Bozize was tossed.
During the attack on Sunday near the southern town of Gambo, three other peacekeepers were maimed and five attackers were "neutralised", MINUSCA said.
The attack happened while a MINUSCA convoy was making a run to reinforce a base.
The soldier's death raises to 13 the number of peacekeepers killed in attacks in CAR this year.

[Al Ahram] A dronezap has killed seven suspected members of al-Qaeda in southern Yemen, a security official said on Sunday.
The United States is the only force known to operate armed drones over Yemen.
"A drone likely to be American" killed all seven overnight as they were aboard three vehicles on the road from the southern province of Shabwa to the central province of Bayda, the official said.
Washington considers the Yemen-based al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula ...the latest incarnation of various Qaeda and Qaeda-allied groups, including the now-defunct Aden-Abyan Islamic Army that boomed the USS Cole in 2000... to be the radical group's most dangerous branch.
A long-running drone war against AQAP has intensified since US President Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... took office in January.
AQAP has flourished in the chaos of the country's civil war, which pits the Saudi-backed government against the Houthis.

The Russian military says six of its Tupolev Tu-22M3 long-range bombers have once again successfully launched airstrikes against positions of the ISIL Takfiri terrorist group in Syria’s eastern province of Deir Ezzor as government forces, supported by allied fighters from popular defense groups, are fighting to totally retake the region from the terrorists.
According to a statement by the Russian Defense Ministry, the large bombers, which flew from an airfield in Russia, hit “terrorist strongholds” in the valley of the Euphrates River in the volatile province.
The airstrikes came a day after a similar attack the Russian bombers carried out in the same province against ISIL’s fortified areas, manpower and armored vehicles near Abbas town, which lies northwest of the recently-liberated Bukamal town and near the border with Iraq.

[Al Ahram] An intensifying push by the Syrian government and allied forces to take the last major rebel stronghold near the capital Damascus killed at least 19 people on Sunday and injured many, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
The group said at least 123 people, including 26 children, have been killed by air strikes and shelling since the Syrian army backed by Russian jets began an offensive nearly two weeks ago to take the besieged rebel-held Eastern Ghouta area.
Eastern Ghouta is one of several "de-escalation" zones across western Syria, where Russia has brokered deals to ease the fighting between rebels and Hereditary President-for-Life Bashir Pencilneck al-Assad Scourge of Qusayr... 's government.
A Rooters witness said there had been drones in the sky since Sunday morning and warplanes had heavily bombarded the towns of Mesraba and Harasta. Heavy shelling also hit Eastern Ghouta and dozens had been injured.
Assad's forces have besieged Eastern Ghouta since 2012 and the area is suffering a humanitarian crisis.
Ghouta residents are so short of food that they are eating trash, fainting from hunger and forcing their children to eat on alternate days, the U.N. World Food Programme said in a report this week.
The opposition Eastern Ghouta Damascus Countryside local council said this week the escalating bombardment was forcing people to seek shelter in unsuitable and unsanitary places which it feared could lead to disease outbreaks.
A number of shells from the rebel enclave have hit government-held Damascus in the past two weeks.
