Afghanistan United Front Claims Attack on Taliban Governor’s Office in Ghor

A powerful explosion was reported at the Taliban provincial governor’s office in Firozkoh, the capital of Ghor province, on Tuesday, September 29. Local reports said security was tightened in the area following the blast.

The Afghanistan United Front (AUF), an anti-Taliban armed group led by former Afghan general Sami Sadat, claimed responsibility for the attack. The group claimed that one of the governor’s guards was killed and eight others were wounded, while the provincial governor survived.

Earlier local accounts had reported a powerful explosion and possible casualties, but the cause and full extent of the damage remain unclear. Taliban authorities in Ghor had not publicly commented on the attack at the time of the latest available reporting.

Independent verification of the AUF casualty claim is pending.
