Afghanistan: Roadside bomb targets Taliban, kills two

KABUL, 04 November 2021, (TON): A roadside bomb struck a Taliban patrol in eastern Afghanistan, killing two people and wounding three, witnesses said.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility.

A Taliban district commander in the city confirmed the blast and said “our Taliban fighters were wounded. The commander, who identified himself as Mubariz and like many Afghans goes by one name did not provide details about those killed in the attack, saying the investigation continues.

In recent weeks, Taliban officials have been reluctant or slow to release details about Taliban fatalities.

Taliban officials said “guards prevented the attackers from entering the hospital.”
