Taliban attack targeting a local militia commander kills at least 17 militiamen in northern Afghanistan
An official inspects an unexploded car and explosive devices which were seized from a Taliban insurgent in Jalalabad, Afghanistan.
Local Afghan militias commonly operate in remote areas and are under the command of either the defence or interior ministries.The attack came even as Taliban officials have told The Associated Press that a temporary nationwide cease-fire may be in the works. The Taliban shura, or ruling council, is currently debating whether to accept the US ceasefire proposal, the Taliban officials said. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorised to speak to the media, but were familiar with the ongoing US-Taliban negotiations.
