Afghanistan Freedom Front Confirms Death of its Senior Commander

Afghanistan Freedom Front (AFF) confirmed the death of its senior Commander, Akmal Ameer, on Sunday.

Akmal Ameer, a former commander of the Afghan Special Forces, and his seven companions were killed during a clash with the Taliban in southern Salang, Parwan province.

According to the Defense Ministry, on April 10, Akmal Ameer and his seven companions were killed during an operation, but the Front did not confirm the report then.

The statement also added that numerous weapons and ammunition were seized during the raid, including a rocket rifle, two RPGs, four Ak-47 and night camera vision.

Ameer was a leading Afghanistan national defence force member during the former republic administration. After the fall of Kabul in August 2021, he went to Panjshir and joined the resistance front, but when the Taliban entered Panjshir the same month, he went to Iran.

Sources within the Freedom Front said that Ameer returned from Iran two months ago and was heading up the military affairs for the Front.

According to the statement released by the Front, the Taliban has taken the bodies of Ameer and his comrades to the Parwan Hospital. The statement added that the bodies were disrespected “by the Taliban.”

Meanwhile, the Taliban released several photos on Sunday, April 16, showing Ameer was shot in the mouth.
