The cities and highways have not been included in the government’s unilateral ongoing ceasefire with Taliban and that the Afghan security forces can launch operations in these areas, a reliable government source told Ariana News on Monday.
According to the source, the Afghan security forces would target the gatherings of the Taliban in these areas.
The Interior Ministry did not comment in this regard but stressed on preserving the government’s unilateral ceasefire with the Taliban.
“We are fully preserving the ceasefire, and the security and defense forces have been ordered to react in case of any action being taken from the other side,” the ministry spokesman Najib Danish said.
