Afghanistan

The Taliban executed 11 Afghans and beheaded several of them for ‘spying’ in Uruzgan, and killed three US soldiers in southern and eastern Afghanistan. Coalition and Afghan forces killed an undisclosed number of Taliban fighters and captured several more, including a Taliban sub-commander and a Haqqani Network facilitator, in Khost, Badghis, Kandahar, and Helmand.
