The U.S. has conducted an airstrike against the Taliban, its first attack on the group since the two sides signed a landmark deal on Saturday, U.S. Forces-Afghanistan spokesperson says.
The Taliban has so far declined to confirm or deny responsibility for any of the attacks and did not immediately respond to request for comment on the airstrike.
A Ministry of Defence spokesman said on Wednesday that in the past 24 hours there had been clashes between the Taliban and Afghan security forces in nine provinces, including Helmand.
