LASHAKARGAH (Pajhwok): Police have deserted their posts in the Sangin district of southern Helmand province soon after a military operation was wound up in the town and its adjacent areas, officials and some elders said on Tuesday.
The Afghan National Army (ANA) recently concluded a 50-day offensive codenamed “Zulfikar,” which the Ministry of Defence has declared as “successful” in Sangin.
A big gathering is scheduled to take place at the Shorab military base on Wednesday to brief participants about the just concluded operation in Sangin and its nearby areas against militants.
