Over 2 dozen militants killed in eastern Afghanistan

At least 25 militants have been confirmed killed as mop-up operations have been continuing in Afghanistan's eastern Wardak province, Interior Ministry spokesman Nasrat Rahimi said Monday.

A main base of the insurgents has also been destroyed during the operations overseen by Deputy Interior Minister General Khoshal Sadat, Rahimi said, adding the crackdown would last until the area is cleared of the armed insurgents.

The spokesman did not say if there were casualties on security personnel.
