NRF Claims Attack on Taliban Minister’s Convoy in Kabul

The National Resistance Front (NRF) announced on Tuesday that it had targeted the convoy of Abdul Latif Mansour, the Taliban’s Minister of Energy and Water, in the Khair Khana area of northern Kabul.

According to an NRF statement, the attack resulted in the death of one of the minister’s guards and injuries to two others.

The NRF reported that the incident occurred at approximately 3:30 PM local time near the northern entrance to Kabul, in the Khair Khana area within Police District 17.

The Taliban have yet to issue a statement regarding the incident.

The NRF stressed that no civilians or members of their forces were harmed during the operation.

Several senior Taliban officials, including the Minister of Energy and Water, were reportedly in the area on Tuesday to inaugurate the “Shah wa Arous” dam in the Shakardara district of Kabul.
