Afghan security forces have eliminated Abu Muhsin al-Masri, a senior al Qaeda leader, Afghanistan’s National Directorate of Security (NDS) said in a tweet late on October 24. Al-Masri, believed to be al Qaeda’s second-in-command, was killed during a special operation in the province of Ghazni province.

According to al-Qaeda’s own reports, Abu Muhsin al-Masri was born in Egypt in 1958 and joined militants fighting the USSR in Afghanistan in 1986. In 1989, he moved to Pakistan and joined “Maktab Al-Khidamat”, which later became a part of al-Qaeda. The eliminated terrorist was cordinating the group’s propaganda efforts and was a member of Al-Qaeda’s high council.

Meanwhile, across the country:

  • At least 30 people were killed and over 70 were wounded after a suicide bomber detonated explosives close to an educational center in the western part of Kabul city;
  • SOF reinforcements arrived in the Imam Sahib area amid heavy clashes with Taliban around the town;
  • A Police vehicle was hit with an IED in the Bihsud area of Nangarhar;
  • An air strike targeted Taliban positions in the vicinity of Dehrawud;
  • The Taliban captutred most of the Baharak district of Takhar province.
