Thirty Taliban fighters were killed in an explosion during a bomb-making class gone awry at a mosque in Afghanistan’s Balkh province.
The dead include six foreign nationals who were considered expert mine makers, the 209th Shaheen Corps said in a statement on Saturday published in Khaama Press News Agency.
The Taliban fighters had gathered in the village of Qultaq for instruction on how to make bombs and IEDs, which are improvised explosive devices commonly used as roadside bombs.
