The Islamic Emirate reported that two members of Daesh were killed and another was arrested Sunday night as a result of an operation at their hideout in the Zakirn township in Kabul's PD17.

The Islamic Emirate's deputy spokesperson, Bilal Karimi, added that this group had a destructive purpose but was stopped before reaching its target.

"Last night, Islamic Emirate forces carried out an operation on a Daesh hideout in the Khairkhana area of Zakrin in Kabul city, as a result of which two Daesh members were killed, and one was arrested. The forces of the Islamic Emirate have also obtained a lot of weapons and ammunition rounds,” Karimi noted.

Several residents of PD17 said that these people had rented and resided at the home for eight months, and they added that there have been financial losses due to damage from the fighting.

"These people were residing in a home that the owner had rented them for about eight months. The owner of the home didn't let us know, and one of these individuals had a Zaranj motorbike, as if he was working in the market,” said Zainullah, a people’s representative in PD17.

"We have financial losses, but happily no one was hurt. When I got home from work, the residence of these people was surrounded,” said Zabiullah, a resident of PD17.

"In order to prevent the spread and rise of this group, it is vital to fight in a coordinated manner and build a regional consensus against them,” said Sadiq Shinwari, a military analyst.

Earlier this month, the forces of the Islamic Emirate conducted a military operation against a Daesh hideout in the Karte-Now area of Kabul, which resulted in the deaths of three and the injury of one of the group's members.
