Afghanistan

The Taliban killed a district governor in Paktia and killed an ISAF soldier in the south. Coalition and Afghan forces killed and captured several Taliban and Haqqani Network commanders and fighters during operations in Kandahar, Helmand, Uruzgan, Zabul, and Kabul. The government ordered 150 aid groups to shut down operations.
