On 21 January 2019, in central Afghanistan, the Taliban attacked a military compound in Maidan Shar, killing officers of the Afghan National Directorate of Security.[1][2] The Taliban attacked while engaging in the process of negotiating a truce with the United States.[3] The attack began when an explosives-laden car rammed through a military checkpoint and onto the grounds of the compound, where the vehicle detonated. After the explosion, two gunmen entered the base and opened fire on Afghan soldiers, before the two were shot down.[4] A senior official in the Afghan defense ministry said that 126 people were killed in the explosion.[1] The Taliban claimed responsibility and stated that over 190 people were killed in the attack.[1] The Afghan National Directorate of Security (NDS) reported that 36 military personnel were killed in the attack.[5] Afghan president, Ashraf Ghani condemned the attack and said that the 'Afghan intelligence agency personnel were target of the attack'.[2][6]

Attack

The attackers rammed a vehicle filled with explosives through a military check point and detonated it in the camp of the National Directorate of Security (NDS) forces training center in Maidan Shar, the capital of Maidan Wardak Province. Following the explosion, two to five Taliban gunmen entered the campus and shot at Afghan soldiers before being fatally shot during the clashes.[7] According to the Defence ministry officials, the Taliban used a Humvee vehicle which they had taken from government forces to house the bomb.[1] Wardak provincial council member, Abdul Wahid Akbarzai, claimed that the attackers had dressed in Afghan special forces uniform.[6] The attack took place on the same day when Taliban representatives met Zalmay Khalilzad, the U.S. special envoy for Afghan peace talks, in Qatar.[1][8] Sharif Hotak, a member of the provincial council in Maidan Wardak, said, "the explosion was very powerful. The whole building has collapsed."[9]

Casualties

Local officials said that no official confirmation regarding the casualty toll of troops and NDS personnel had been made, adding that officials said not to discuss the figure with the media due to the fear of damaging morale.[10] NDS reports showed 36 killed and 58 injured.[5] Mohammad Sardar Bakhyari, deputy head of the provincial council stated at least 65 were killed in the military base.[11] Another source in Maidan Wardak Province reported that more than 100 members of NDS were killed in the attack.[7] Sharif Hotak said "many more were killed" and he saw bodies of 35 Afghan soldiers in the hospital. Hotak asserted that the government was hiding the casualty figures.[10] Khawanin Sultani, a provincial council member, said the attack left over 70 wounded.[12] Zabiullah Mujahid, spokesman of Taliban insurgents, claimed 190 people were killed in the attack.[7]

Reactions

President Ashraf Ghani's office called the attackers "enemies of the country" and said that "they killed and wounded a number of our beloved and honest sons".[7]

Bahram Ghasemi, a representative of Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, condemned the attack and expressed sympathy for the victims' families.[13]

The Prime Minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan, expressed condolences to the families affected by the attack.[14]

Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, President of Turkey, condemned the attack and expressed his condolences to Ghani.[9]

The U.S. Embassy in Afghanistan condemned the attack and said "the United States stands with the people of Afghanistan, who seek a peaceful future and an end to the violence".[15]

Aftermath

On January 23, NDS said they killed the attack organiser along with seven militants in an airstrike.[16] The Taliban rejected the NDS statement, describing it as "propaganda". Akhtar Mohammad Tahiri, a provincial council chief, said an aerial bombardment did occur and that four civilians were killed.[17]
