At least 70 Taliban insurgents have been killed and dozens others injured during operations conducted in various parts of Afghanistan, authorities have said.

Afghan national security forces have killed at least 70 insurgents and injured 102 others during ground clearing operations in the past 24 hours, according to statements released by Afghan defense and interior ministries on Sunday.

During the same period of time, the statement confirmed at least nine troops had lost their lives as a result of direct fire and bomb explosions.

The operations are part of an effort to push forward and regain more areas from militants before the mountains become inaccessible due to snow.

The operations were carried out in various provinces of Afghanistan and aimed to capture or kill the militants, according to Najeebullah Danish, the deputy spokesman of the Ministry of Interior.

“As the season for fighting comes to its end in Afghanistan, Afghan forces have conducted operations to hunt down Taliban militants before they go to their hideouts,” Danish told the Anadolu Agency.

According to a statement sent to media outlets on Sunday, separate operations by the Afghan Intelligence Service ended in the arrest of five terrorist groups in five provinces, including the capital, Kabul.

Taliban militants refused the official figures and called it Afghan government propaganda.

“Taliban Mujahideen have killed nine soldiers and 30 others were captured during an operation in the eastern Badakhshan provinces which started on Sunday morning," a Taliban statement said on Sunday.

Despite immense Taliban losses, it seems there is no corresponding decline in their activities.

According to the Afghan government, dozens of Taliban militants are being killed, injured or captured by Afghan forces on a daily basis.

In the advent of a cold winter in Afghanistan, the Taliban slowdown their operations and move to their safe havens.

“Since Taliban militants use motorbikes for their activities and live in mountainous areas, they are vulnerable to the winter and cold weather. Usually by December, Taliban insurgents end their operations on national forces in Afghanistan and cross the border to Pakistan,” Afghan senator Nisar Haris explained.

Also, British troops have ended their 13 years of combat operations in Afghanistan by handing over its last and largest military base, Camp Bastion, to Afghan security forces in southern Helmand province on Sunday.

The UK was one of the first countries which sent troops to Afghanistan along with the United States to topple the Taliban regime in 2001.

As of October 26 2014, the UK has suffered a total of 453 fatalities.

Afghanistan has seen a wave of deadly attacks since the new government took power a month ago, putting pressure on it to control the militancy.

Afghan security forces are widely expected to face security challenges in the coming years, as they will not have the direct support of foreign forces who will leave by end of 2014.

“Afghan forces will experience a hard task in the future, but I believe they will overcome it and repel Taliban attacks,” Haris added.

According to Afghan sources, yeah I believe them. Almost half of their soldiers have connection to the Taliban. And when the ISAF leaves most of them will either join the Talibans or desert their post.
