Mawlawi Noman, an aide to Taliban Intelligence Chief, and another person who was with him (identity not disclosed) were killed in a targeted drone or rocket attack in Kabul, Afghanistan International reports on December 28. The statement contradicts earlier claims that his death was caused by a gas-cylinder explosion. The eyewitness described the incident as highly targeted and calculated, adding that the force of the blast was inconsistent with a domestic accident. According to the witness, the guest who was with Mawlawi Noman was also killed in the attack. No official information has been released about the identity of the guest. Taliban forces arrived quickly at the scene and deleted images and videos recorded by residents and neighbours in the immediate aftermath of the incident.
