Abdul Aziz Bek, head of the Badghis provincial council, said one military base was targeted, in the district of Bala.

“Large numbers of Taliban came from several directions,” Bek said.

The government also called a ceasefire for the holiday and Taliban fighters headed into cities across the country over the weekend as both sides celebrated the end of the fasting month of Ramadan.

The government extended its unilateral ceasefire, initially due to end on Wednesday, by 10 days.
