KABUL Brigadier General Charles H. Cleveland has said the Islamic State or Daesh group is now trying to survive instead of expanding its activities.
In an interview with Pajhwok Afghan News, the spokesman said Daesh was more active in Nangarhar and most of the group affiliates were Pakistani militants.
But he said the group’s activities and strength had reduced by a half and they were trying to survive.
After their defeat in Nangarhar, the IS fighters were trying to sneak into neighbouring Kunar . . .
