At least four terror operatives linked to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) terrorist group were blown up by their own explosives in eastern Kunar province of Afghanistan.
According to the 201st Silab Corps of the Afghan Military in the East, the incident took place on Wednesday in the vicinity of Chapa Dara district.
The source further added that four ISIS operatives were blown up in Wach Nawa area while they were planting an improvised explosive device on a roadside targeting military convoys.
Two others were wounded after they were blown up in a premature explosion.
Humiliated anti-government armed militant groups frequently use explosives materials for the roadside bombings and car bombings to target the government staff and security personnel.
However, in majority of such incidents the ordinary civilians are targeted besides such bombings incur casualties to the security personnel and in some cases the Taliban and ISIS themselves are killed or wounded.
