Afghan Taliban declared that they destroyed two Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters of Afghanistan, granted by the United States for security purposes.
Afghan troops killed in this attack, Zabiullah Mujahid, who is the Spokesman of the Taliban, said on Monday.
Zabiullah Mujahid shared drone footage of the strike on Twitter. The destroyed Black Hawk helicopters of the US have been seen in the video.
The spokesperson of the Afghan Taliban Mohammad Naeem tweeted a statement:
"After the stooge enemy was exposed and suffered humiliating defeats across the country where thousands of soldiers defected and embraced the open arms of the Islamic Emirate, and nearly two hundred districts were cleansed from their malicious presence, the enemy has now reached for propaganda, fabrications, and other futile tactics," he said.
A few days before in Moscow, Taliban mediator Shahabuddin Delawar claimed that "Eighty-five percent of Afghanistan's territory is under the control of Afghan Taliban.
According to media reports, this incident happened at Kunduz Airport while conducting a tactical attack.
