Afghanistan Freedom Front Launches Deadly Attacks On Taliban In Kabul, Claiming 3 Lives

The Afghanistan Freedom Front (AFF) has announced its responsibility for two separate attacks on Taliban positions in districts five and six of western Kabul.

According to the AFF, the coordinated strikes resulted in the deaths of three Taliban members, including a commander, and injured six others. The attacks targeted Taliban outposts in the Kote Sangi and Gulkhana areas.

Taliban officials have yet to issue a statement regarding these incidents.

In more detail, the AFF disclosed that one of the assaults occurred in the Kote Sangi area of district five, resulting in the death of Taliban commander Mohammad Younes Torabi and injuries to three of his men. This attack took place at 6 pm local time on Friday.

The AFF described the members of the Kote Sangi Taliban outpost as particularly brutal, alleging their involvement in unwarranted house searches and looting in the district over the past month.

A separate AFF statement reported an additional attack on a Taliban outpost in the Gulkhana area of district six, occurring at 8:30 pm local time on the same Friday. This attack reportedly left two Taliban members dead and three wounded.

Local sources in Kabul, reporting to Afghanistan International, confirmed hearing multiple explosions and gunfire in the Kote Sangi area on Friday evening, followed by further reports of explosions and gunfire.

The AFF has released two videos purportedly showcasing their attacks in the fifth and sixth districts of Kabul, marking a significant escalation in attacks by the group on the Taliban.
