Qalat (Afghanistan): Taliban key commander Mullah Hemmatullah was among 10 killed as the Afghan government aircrafts targeted the terrorist group’s hideout in the country’s Nawbahar district.
Acting upon an intelligence report, the government forces’ fighting aircrafts hit a meeting of Taliban terrorists in Piruzi village in the morning, resulting in the deaths of 10 terrorists including Hemmatullah, a police official said.
Hemmatullah was a notorious commander and his elimination could prove to be a major setback to the Taliban terrorists in Zabul and the neighbouring Kandahar and Helmand provinces.
