-- "On Thursday, Gen. Dad Mohammad Harifi, the National Directorate of Security chief for Afghanistan’s Nangarhar province, said that IS would likely move to Kunar province following defeats in Nangarhar (Pajhwok). Harifi stated: “[IS] has been comprehensively suppressed in Nangarhar and limited to Achin and Haska Mena districts. Up to 250 Daesh fighters are seen in Kunar, so I think the province would be their next hideout after Nangarhar.” Nangarhar Police Chief Maj. Gen. Fazal Ahmad Sherzad added: “We have killed 762 militants in the past one year and conducted hundreds of operations and cleared many areas from the presence of insurgents.”"
