[DAWN] A senior Taliban ...mindless ferocity in a turban... military commander has been killed in a US Arclight airstrike in Afghanistan, officials said on Sunday.
Abdul Manan, who was the Taliban's 'shadow governor' in the southern Helmand ...an Afghan province populated mostly by Pashtuns, adjacent to Injun country in Pak Balochistan... province, died of wounds sustained during an airstrike late on Saturday said Omar Zwak, a front man for the official governor of the province.
Manan's death was also confirmed by the Taliban who in a statement described it as a "big loss" for the group but vowed that it will not affect their military operations.
Helmand ‐ the region that supplies the largest share of Afghanistan's opium crop ‐ has been the scene of bitter fighting for years with 10 out of 14 districts of the province either controlled or contested by the Taliban.
As a senior Taliban leader, Abdul Manan had led the insurgency group's expansion as it expanded control over the opium-rich province in recent years.
Afghan interior ministry front man Najib Danish said Manan was the Death Eaters' top military leader in southern Afghanistan and his death was a major blow to the Taliban.
"His death will lower the morale of the enemy, and result in (the) improvement of security in Helmand and other southern provinces," Najib Danish told AFP.
Danish said that 32 other Taliban fighters were also killed in the airstrike.
A US force front man in Afghanistan confirmed the airstrike had killed the Taliban shadow governor.
"The Taliban should consider intensifying peace talks, not the fight. They're going to have trouble intensifying the fight when their fighters and leaders are under constant assault," Col Dave Butler said in a statement.
Abdul Manan was on the blacklist unveiled mid-October by the Riyadh-based Terrorist Financing Targeting Center (TFTC), which imposed financial sanctions on nine individuals, including six Taliban members.

The area is located in Homs province.
According to a so-called monitoring group, the coalition forces at a US military base in al-Tanf region fired "more than 14 missiles" at a Syrian army convoy as it was passing through the desert in the far east of Homs province.
"The group was lost in the middle of the desert around 35 kilometers from the al-Tanf base," the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights told AFP.
The coalition invaded Syria without a United Nations ...an organization conceived in the belief that we're just one big happy world, with the sort of results you'd expect from such nonsense... mandate in 2014 under the pretext of defeating the Takfiri terror group of ISIS. It sustains its operations although Syria and its allies defeated the outfit late last year.
In September, the monitor said US Arclight airstrikes had killed 3,331 civilians in Syria since they began.
