Kabul's Shakardara District 'Cleared of Insurgents'
[ToloNews] At least five Taliban
...the Pashtun equivalent of men...
were killed and two others--including a Taliban leader--were maimed during a joint security forces operation in Kabul, the Ministry of Defense said in a statement on Monday.

The operation was launched in Shakardara district and 25 bully boys, including three group leaders, were arrested. The Taliban "were causing fear in the district," the statement said, adding that "the forces will remain in the district for security."

"The forces also seized weapons during the operation," it added.

However,
it's easy to be generous with someone else's money...
the statement did not give details about security force casualties.

The Taliban has not yet commented on the operation.
