KABUL: Spokesman of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan and deputy to the Ministry of Information and Culture Zabihullah Mujahid rejected report about U.S. airstrike in the country’s southern province of Helmand.
He said Explosive Remnants of War (ERW) has been detonated in a desert in the province. “In Helmand Mujahideen rounded up ERW and detonated them in an area near Shurab base,” said Mujahid rejecting the report as inaccurate and rumor.
He said no other incident or airstrike had happened and that media reports on U.S. airstrike were not true.
Also, Helmand Provincial Information and Cultural Department spurned report on U.S. airstrike. “After victory of the IEA’s Mujahidin, no airstrike happened in Helmand,” he said adding there was peace and stability in the
province.
