Kabul: At least 10 terrorists were killed by Afghan National Army (ANA) during an operation in eastern province of Kunar, an army source said today.
"The ANA conducted a clean-up operation in surrounding areas of Asmar and Ghazi Abad district on Tuesday. So far, 10 militants have been killed and three injured," Xinhua quoted army spokesman in the region, as saying.
One army personnel was also killed and two injured during the ongoing operation, the official said.
Afghan security forces have pressed on clearing the militants in restive provinces as Taliban terrorists have been attempting to take territory and consolidate their positions during the winter in the Asian country.
