KABUL (SW) – Zabiullah Mujahid, spokesperson for the de-facto government, has claimed that the Islamic Emirate’s Special Forces have apprehended key members of ISIS-K involved in attacks on the Attorney General\u2019s office in Kabul.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a statement released on Monday, September 30, Mujahid said that these individuals were also linked to assaults on foreign tourists in Bamyan and several other attacks in Kabul.<\/p>\n

In a suicide attack on the Attorney General’s employees on September 2, six people lost their lives, and 13 others were injured. Additionally, in an attack on foreign tourists in Bamyan earlier this year, 7 tourists were killed or wounded.<\/p>\n

Mujahid added that the Islamic Emirate\u2019s Special Forces conducted operations in Kabul and Nangarhar to apprehend these individuals, leading to arrest of a Tajikistan national believed to be planning a suicide attack from the hideout of the orchestrator of these assaults.<\/p>\n

He explained that the attackers who targeted employees of the General Directorate of Supervision and Enforcement had traveled from a training camp operated by ISIS-K in Mastung, Balochistan, Pakistan, to Afghanistan.<\/p>\n

The statement noted that in several other operations in Kabul and Faryab, two of these militants were killed while others were captured alive. “Among those apprehended are individuals who had recently arrived from the ISIS-K training camp in Mastung, Balochistan.”<\/p>\n

Mujahid further mentioned that after the Islamic Emirate’s efforts to dismantle ISIS, many of its remaining leaders and members fled to Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa with the assistance of certain intelligence agencies, where they now operate training camps.<\/p>\n

He emphasized that members of ISIS use these camps to “coordinate attacks in Afghanistan and other countries”.<\/p>\n

These remarks come amidst repeated claims by Pakistani officials that terrorist groups are operating from Afghan territory, launching attacks against Pakistan\u2014allegations that the Islamic Emirate has consistently denied.<\/p>\n
