Six militants' defense positions and hideouts together with amount of weapons and ammunition were also destroyed by the security forces, the statement added.

In neighboring Pachir Aw Agam district, three IS fighters were killed after Afghan Air Force launched an airstrike in the mountainous district, according to the Afghan Ministry of Defense.
