Kabul, Afghanistan: Cutting Afghanistan from bordering countries, the Taliban are capturing districts of important Nangarhar Province.
The office of the Governor of Nangarhar has confirmed the withdrawal of the security forces from the district centers, saying the troops relocated to a safer place.
“To prevent casualties among the civilians, whose houses were used by Taliban as fighting positions, the headquarters of the Hesarak and Sherzad districts are relocated from its original position to a better place,” the Nangarhar governor’s office said in a statement. Now Surkh Rod district is left before the Taliban can march to Jalalabad.
