Resistance forces known as the Patriots Legion briefly took control of the Yaftal Payan district in Badakhshan province. The daring attack marks the first time a district center has temporarily fallen out of Taliban control.

Taliban officials confirmed the brief loss of the district but stated that security forces have now regained full control. They also reported the arrest of several individuals connected to the armed assault.

The attacking front consists largely of former security personnel and is viewed by military experts as a significant development. The incident highlights ongoing security challenges in the northern regions of the country.
