Afghan Defense Ministry: over the past day the Afghan army destroyed 197 militants

According to the Afghan Ministry of Defense, the Afghan army conducted a series of successful operations against militants of various terrorist groups. According to the ministry, in the past 24 hours alone, the servicemen managed to eliminate 197 militants in various provinces of the country. In this case, the loss of the Armed Forces of Afghanistan are estimated at 17 military personnel.

From the statement of the representative of the main military department of Afghanistan (translation RIA News):

As a result of operations conducted in various parts of the country over the past 24 hours, the army of Afghanistan eliminated 197 armed militants, including one of their commanders. More 70 militants were injured, 16 militants detained.

During the operation, the Afghan soldiers in the provinces of Badghis, Ghazni, Herat, Helmand, as well as in some areas of Kabul and Kunduz, were able to identify depots of militants with weapons and ammunition.

Against this background, the statement of the former head of Afghanistan, Hamid Karzai, looks very significant:

The presence of soldiers from the United States and other NATO countries in Afghanistan has increased the terror in our country.

Terror and drug production in recent years have become a real "calling card" of Afghanistan. Recall that some time ago, US President Obama said that under current conditions, the American contingent can not leave Afghanistan and "forced to stay in the country."

There are no naives. Nobody believes. It is necessary to strengthen the Tajik-Afghan border. Su-25 and helicopters to prepare airfields. There will be work.

I see, I understand, and I feel that Afghanistan will soon be back with Russia, just like the long-suffering Syria and all other countries "degraded" by the State Department ...

I don’t believe .... such a loss per day for the Taliban can be only with hours of fighting of large units or a successful airstrike against a cluster of militants.
However, the Taliban are not fools to concentrate for a long time a large number of militants in one place ... they fight inventively.

Most likely, the newcomers put it.
It is possible that ofigevshih in the region.
It is possible that together with the Taliban.
The IG then loses its position, and it is customary to cut the weak ones there.

Several large gangs of Khorasan invaded their border eastern provinces there. Actively burn and kill.

Mansur in the north pulls most of the troops over, and these from the east hit.

A complicated feeling ... On the one hand, the Taliban are byaky and they need their a-ta-ta. On the other hand, the Taliban make the goat's face to our American friends and partners, which is very buzzing. Hence the duality of feelings :) If only one more American plane would be shot down, or something, it’s sad somehow, autumn ..
