Fierce fighting between Afghan forces and the Taleban left dozens dead in a restive eastern province, officials said on Thursday (Sept 17), as negotiators from both sides pushed ahead with peace talks in Qatar.
Overnight clashes erupted in three districts of Nangarhar province when Taleban fighters attacked several checkpoints of Afghan forces and pro-government militiamen, Mr Ataullah Khogyani, spokesman for the Nangarhar governor, told AFP.
He said at least 11 Afghan security personnel were killed in fighting in Hesarak, while eight pro-government militiamen were killed in Khogyani.
