Kabul: The Afghan Ministry of Defence said on Monday that the military has discovered a car bomb and defused 32 Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) in two provinces.
The IEDs were found in Kandahar's Panjwaye, Arghandab and Zharay districts, while the forces detected the car bomb allegedly prepared by Taliban militants to target security forces, the statement said.
The ANDSF remains in control of most of Afghanistan's population centres and all of 34 provincial capitals, but Taliban insurgents control large portions of rural areas, staging coordinated large-scale attacks from time to time.
