· 1 min read · 326 views

KABUL on Monday warned of attacking security forces during the upcoming parliamentary elections, scheduled for October 20.

However, the militant movement promised taking all possible measures to spare civilians and take care of their properties.

The warning cams as US peace envoy Zalmay Khalilzad met Afghan leaders to discuss ways of ending the 17-year-old war in the country.

Denouncing the vote as a “malicious American conspiracy”, Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said they would pull no punches to disrupt the ballot.
