The Afghan Air Force has carried out a series of night airstrikes in southern Uruzgan province leaving at least 30 Taliban militants dead.
According to the informed military sources, the Afghan Air Force A29’s conducted night air strikes last night killing 30 Taliban fighters in Khas Uruzgan district of Uruzgan.
The sources further added “The Afghan Air Force’s night strike capabilities greatly minimize the Taliban’s abilities to move and operate at night.”
Uruzgan is among the relatively volatile provinces in South of Afghanistan where Taliban are actively operating in some of its districts and often carry out attacks against the government and security institutions.
In the meantime, the Afghan forces and the coalition forces based in Afghanistan also conduct regular ground operations and airstrikes to suppress the anti-government armed elements in Uruzgan and other restive parts of the country.
