IEA forces destroy Daesh cell in north of Kabul
The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan forces destroyed a Daesh cell in the north of Kabul late on Sunday, a spokesperson for the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (IEA) said, after a blast outside a mosque in the Afghan capital killed and wounded a number of civilians.
There was no confirmation that the operation was directly connected with Sunday’s blast, which appeared to be the most serious attack in the Afghan capital since the withdrawal of U.S. forces at the end of August.
Daesh (ISIS-K), has already claimed to have carried out attacks on IEA targets and remains unreconciled to the IEA which swept to victory over the Western-backed government in Kabul in August.
IEA spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said a special unit carried out an operation against Daesh elements in Kabul’s PD17, in the city’s north late on Sunday.
“The Daesh base was entirely destroyed and all of the Daesh members inside were killed as a result of this decisive and successful attack,” Mujahid tweeted early on Monday.
Earlier, reports emerged of heavy clashes in the area and residents confirmed they had heard explosions and gunfire during the night, Reuters reported.
Daesh has not said anything yet.
Reporting from the scene on Monday, an Ariana News reporter said that as a result of Sunday night’s clashes, a number of residential houses were damaged.
The area is now under the control of IEA forces.
No civilian casualties have been reported so far.

WFP air services in Afghanistan may be suspended due to funding crisis
According to WFP, the organization urgently needs $10.5 million in funding to continue its relief flights in 2025.
The UN’s World Food Program (WFP) in Afghanistan has announced the possible suspension of its air services in the country due to a severe shortage of funding.
WFP is one of the largest humanitarian organizations in Afghanistan and the air services have played a vital role in transporting humanitarian aid, especially to areas difficult to reach by land.
In a message posted on X, the WFP explained that in the past, when roads were blocked, air services were the only way to deliver aid to remote areas of Afghanistan. This aid included food, medicine, and other essential items that are essential for the survival of millions of people in need in Afghanistan.
According to WFP, the organization urgently needs $10.5 million in funding to continue its relief flights in 2025.
In addition, the WFP stated that humanitarian needs in Afghanistan continue to increase and millions of people across the country are dependent on humanitarian assistance.
WFP stated that if air services are stopped, it will become very difficult, if not impossible, to deliver vital aid to areas that are not accessible by road.
