AVA- "An Afghan Air Force aircraft targeted a group of Haqqani terrorist network in Spera district, Khost province, late Wednesday, killing four members of the network," the ministry said in a statement.
As a Taliban-linked group of militants, the Haqqani network is mostly operating in eastern provinces and capital Kabul and has been responsible for many high-profile attacks against security forces.
The network, which was designated as a terrorist group by the United States in 2012, has yet to respond to the report.
