The clashes took place in PD1 of Kunduz city when the Taliban attacked a security outpost. At least four policemen were killed and three more were wounded in a Taliban attack on Monday night, said Fawzia Yaftali, a provincial council member.

The explosion occurred in Surkh Rod district, according to local officials. At least one border police officer was killed and two more were wounded in an explosion in the eastern province of Nangarhar on Tuesday morning, local officials said.

The incident happened at around 08:30 am in Tangi Tarakhil area east of Kabul. One police force member was killed and three more were wounded in an explosion that targeted their vehicle in Kabul on Wednesday morning, police confirmed in a statement.

However, the Office of National Security Council (ONSC) has said that it is premature to talk about the political system in Afghanistan.

Maas said that at the end of April, “these peace talks won’t be over.” The withdrawal of foreign troops from Afghanistan should be tied to progress in peace negotiations between the Afghan Republic and the Taliban, rather than “slavishly” bound to an end-of-April deadline, German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas said Tuesday as quoted by AP.

Afghanistan’s poor are being deceived into defending outposts from the Taliban, sometimes under the guise of construction work — a scheme partially bankrolled by the government.

The United States should urgently re-open talks with the Taliban to delay a full withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan beyond the May 1 deadline agreed to by the Trump administration, a bipartisan experts group recommended Wednesday after months of studying potential pathways to peace.

At least ten security forces members were killed and 11 others were wounded in separate attacks in Sar-e-Pul and Uruzgan provinces, local officials said.

The Taliban has been saying that the US strikes were against the spirit of the US-Taliban peace deal. The Pentagon on Wednesday reiterated that any withdrawal from Afghanistan will be conditions-based.
