12 minutes ago

A wanted Taliban insurgent leader in Afghanistan, Mullah Brother, was killed on Thursday in a U.S.-led raid in the southern province of Helmand, the Afghan Defence Ministry said.

Brother served as a top military commander for the Taliban government until its removal from power in 2001 and was a member of the movement's leadership council led by its fugitive leader, Mullah Mohammad Omar.

Quoting Afghan army corps commanders in Helmand, a long-time bastion of the Taliban, the Defence Ministry said Brother was killed in the pre-dawn operation.
