Two civilians injured in Taliban shooting in Nangarhar

Sources in Nangarhar province report that two civilians were injured when the Taliban fired to disperse protesters in the area.

According to these sources, residents of Nangarhar blocked the Jalalabad-Torkham highway for two hours on Thursday to protest the demolition of their homes.

The Taliban have warned these residents that they plan to demolish their homes to construct a new customs office.

This incident follows previous violence where two individuals were killed by Taliban gunfire in Badakhshan.
