The National Resistance Front (NRF) announced on Thursday that it had killed at least three members of the Taliban in an attack on a patrol in Kabul.

In a separate development, the Afghanistan Freedom Front (AFF) also said that it had attacked a Taliban battalion on the outskirts of Maimana city, the capital of Faryab province.

The Afghanistan Freedom Front said that two Taliban fighters had been killed and two others were wounded in the attack.

A spokesman for the Taliban's police command in Faryab indirectly confirmed the attack in response to reporters. The Maimana explosion was caused by a car tyre burst, he said, and called on journalists to dismiss the "rumours of an attack".

The Afghanistan Freedom Front has also released a video of its attack on the Taliban's base in the city of Maimana. The video shows what appears to be a Taliban stronghold, its gate and the group's flag above it, the passage of vehicles and citizens, as well as the sound of a relatively large explosion.
