Twenty five Taliban, 5 policemen killed in clashes

KABUL: A senior Taliban commander and 24 of his fighters were killed in a battle with Afghan security forces in a northern village which also left five police dead, officials said Thursday.

The commander of the attack was the Taliban shadow governor for the northern province of Faryab where the gunfight took place on Wednesday, according to the officials.

“The brutal enemies of Afghanistan attacked a village bazaar. They killed five local police,” Abdul Satar Barez, the Faryab deputy governor, told AFP.

“When we received reports about the incident we sent reinforcements. Twenty-five Taliban including Mullah Yaar Mohammad, their shadow governor for Faryab, were killed,” Barez said.

The Taliban are traditionally active in southern and eastern parts of Afghanistan. But in recent years the militants have infiltrated previously peaceful parts such as the northern provinces.

Barez said the death of the Taliban shadow governor had dealt the insurgents in his region a major blow.
