An Afghan National Army (ANA) soldier killed at least five Taliban insurgents after he was kidnapped in eastern Ghazni province, Khaama Press reported on Sunday.
According to local government officials, the incident took place in Andar district, a relatively volatile district where Taliban militants are actively operating.
The officials further added that the ANA soldier was also martyred during the cross-fire which took place on Saturday.
The district administrative chief Mohammad Qasim Desiwal said the ANA soldier was abducted while he was his way from Kandahar province to capital Kabul.
