Some 37 militants have been killed in operations conducted by the Afghan security forces within the last 24 hours, the country's Interior Ministry said on Monday.
"In past 24 hours, Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF) carried out cleanup operations in Nangarhar, Baghlan, Kunduz, Faryab, Sari Pul and Helmand provinces, killing 37 armed insurgents, wounding three while three insurgents were arrested by the ANSF," the ministry said in a statement.
The ANSF also found and seized weapons, the statement said, without adding if there were any casualties on the side of security forces.
"The Ministry of Interior Affairs appreciates the ANSF operations to eliminate the terrorists' sanctuaries and a good step toward improving the security and stability," the statement added.
The Taliban militant group has yet to make comments.
