Three persons were injured after Taliban forces opened fire at houses of civilians in Abedak village of Salang district in Parwan province, local sources told Afghanistan International.

The firing started at around 8:00pm on July 28 and as a result, a 30-year-old woman, a 17-year-old girl, and a 17-year-old boy were injured. They were transferred to the Emergency hospital in Kabul.
