Unconfirmed:
A drone strike targeted former #TTP deputy leader, Mawlawi Faqir Mohammad, in #Kunar, #AFG today.
There are conflicting news about Faqir Mohammad's fate. Some sources said earlier that he was killed in the attack, but Tribal News just reported that he escaped unhurt.
Mawlawi Faqir Mohammad Bajauri was captured by AFG security forces in #Afghanistan in February 2013 & released by the #Taliban in August 2021, after they took over Kabul.
On 17 August, #TTP confirmed that Faqir Mohammad was released alongside some other group members from prison.

State-run @BakhtarNA reported that one civilian was killed and two more were wounded in today's roadside IED #explosion in Tank-e Logar area, in PD8 of #Kabul City.
Local sources told me that the target of the explosion was a passing by vehicle of the #Taliban.
There was reportedly another explosion in PD16/22 of Kabul City.
A vehicle was targeted with MIED near Mullah TaraKhel's hospital in east of Kabul.
Meanwhile, the @emergency_ngo reported receiving three wounded patients, seemingly from PD16 explosion.
As both explosions were in the same direction (road), there could be some misreporting/mixing of information.
