Taliban kills four policemen in Afghanistan's Ghazni province

At least four police personnel were killed after Taliban insurgents stormed a security check port in Afghanistan's central Ghazni province.

The police, confirming the attack, said two other policemen were injured.

"The Taliban also suffered casualties in the clash, but there is no exact information," the Tolo News quoted provincial police chief Mohammad Zaman as saying. He added that the insurgents retreated after the attack.

Earlier this week, 41 Afghan soldiers were killed by the Taliban in two suicide car bombings at an army camp in Kandahar.
