BALKH, Aug. 20 –  In a deadliest fighting lasting through much of Saturday Mujahideen of the  Islamic Emirate thwarted attempts the militia faction of Ata Noor to regain the areas, villages and posts taken over by Mujahideen, according to Al-Emarah News.

It added Mujahideen inflicted a heavy defeat on the militia faction in Chamtal district of the northern province of Balkh, leaving 17 puppets killed and an additional 14 injured.

Similarly, 2 armored tanks and a vehicle were destroyed after being shot with rockets in Saturday’s fighting.

One Mujahid fighter is said to have become martyr with another one injured in yesterday’s operation.

The claims by the enemy that the militia faction reclaimed the villages and posts are untrue and baseless.
