Taliban attack on district headquarters in remote area in northern Afghanistan triggers a gunbattle that is still under way hours later, officials say
Afghan security forces take position during a battle with the Taliban in Kunduz province, Afghanistan on September 1, 2019.
The attack on the Shortepa district headquarters in northern Balkh province started early in the morning, according to Munir Ahmad Farhad, spokesman for the provincial governor. Farhad denied the claim, saying Afghan security forces were still in control of the district headquarters and that reinforcements were on their way to Shortepa.
"I hope reinforcements arrive sooner rather than later, it is a remote area with very poor communications," he said.
