At least 23 ISIS militants were killed in an airstrike in eastern Nangarhar province of Afghanistan.
The Ministry of Defense (MoD) said the airstrike was carried out in Achin district of Nangarhar, according to (Khaama Press).
No further details were given regarding the airstrike and it is yet not clear if the raid was conducted by the Afghan Air Force or the US forces based in Afghanistan.
This comes as at least 13 loyalists of the group were killed in a similar airstrike carried out by the US forces in Nangarhar on Friday.
The Afghan forces and US forces based in Afghanistan are regularly targeting the ISIS militants and other militant groups.
The US forces based in Afghanistan have increased airstrikes against the militants after the Obama administration granted broader role to them amid deteriorating security situation in Afghanistan.
