NRF Claims Responsibility For Two Attacks in Kabul
The National Resistance Front (NRF) stated that in two separate attacks on Taliban positions in Kabul city, three Taliban members had been killed, and two others were injured.
Earlier, local sources reported hearing two explosions in western Kabul.
In a statement released on Friday, the front mentioned that its forces targeted a Taliban checkpoint near the Koti Sangi bridge around 7PM, located within the fifth police district of Kabul city.
According to the front, two Taliban members had been killed, and two others were injured in this attack.
The front reported that the second attack took place at 7:30PM, when its forces targeted a Taliban checkpoint near Habibia High School in the seventh police district of Kabul city, resulting in the death of one Taliban member and the injury of another.
NRF did not elaborate on the nature of these attacks.
However, the front released a video of one of these two attacks, showing its members firing towards the Taliban checkpoint. A significant explosion is visible in the video.
Earlier, some residents of Kabul as well as several sources reported hearing two explosions around Koti Sangi. One source described one of the explosions as massive.
The Taliban typically refrains from commenting or acknowledging attacks by the NRF. In recent days, attacks by the resistance front forces on Taliban personnel in Kabul and some other provinces, including Ghor, have intensified.
According to the NRF’s statement, in one of the recent attacks by the front in Ghor province, the Taliban’s commander of the governor's guards and one of his guards were killed.
