Afghan forces raid another Taliban ‘prison’ in Helmand

“The Afghan military raided a Taliban ‘prison’ in Helmand province and freed 35 people, including women and children. The Taliban jail is the third in Helmand to have been targeted by Afghan forces since December 2015. The presence of Taliban prisons highlights the deteriorating security situation in Helmand, where Afghan forces are losing ground to the jihadist group.”
