Kabul: Local officials have said Aliabad region of Afghanistan's northern Kunduz province has fallen in the hands of Taliban militants, media reports said on Monday.

Haji Mohammad Omar Khan, a parliamentarian from Kunduz province, confirmed to Khaama Press that the Taliban carried offensive attacks in the center of Aliabad district of Kunduz Province on Saturday.

He also added that the Taliban captured the center of Aliabad district and a military base after hours of fighting with government forces.

Omar Khan stated that security forces abandoned their bases days before and yet it is not clear whether the withdrawal was a tactical retreat or defeat.

Meanwhile, Aliabad remains the third district to fall to the Taliban since Friday.

The other two regions are Ghor and Balkh provinces.
