Afghanistan

The US military is pushing to slow down the withdrawal from Afghanistan. Coalition and Afghan forces killed 20 Haqqani Network fighters and detained several Taliban and Haqqani Network commanders and fighters in Paktia, Wardak, Kunduz, and Kandahar. The Afghan government wants the UN to delist 47 Taliban leaders.
