KABUL: The security forces of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan have killed at least an armed rebel and arrested 10 others in the country’s eastern province of Kapisa, the state-run Bakhtar news agency reported Sunday. “A rebel has been killed in clash with security forces and 10 others have been arrested on charge of cooperation with the rebel,” the agency quoted intelligence sources of Kapisa province as saying. Daesh or the rival Islamic State (IS) outfit occasionally conducts subversive activities and the latest security incident which happened in the shape of suicide attack inside a mosque in western Herat city early this month and the hardliner IS claimed responsibility, left at least 18 dead and injured 23 others.
