Head of Taliban in Afghanistan believed to have died following US air-strike
They targeted Afghan Taliban leader Mullah Akhtar Mansour in remote area
Pentagon assessing results of airstrike to determine whether he was killed
The strike took place at about 6am local time. Multiple U.S. drones targeted the men as they rode in a vehicle in a remote area in Pakistan along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, southwest of the town of Ahmad Wal, the official said. Mansur became the leader of the Taliban in July last year following the death of its previous leader, Mullah Omar.
Peter Cook, the Pentagon's Press Secretary said: 'Today, the Department of Defense conducted an airstrike that targeted Taliban leader Mullah Mansur in a remote area of the Afghanistan-Pakistan border region. 'Mansur has been the leader of the Taliban and actively involved with planning attacks against facilities in Kabul and across Afghanistan, presenting a threat to Afghan civilians and security forces, our personnel, and Coalition partners. 'We are still assessing the results of the strike and will provide more information as it becomes available.
'Mansur has been an obstacle to peace and reconciliation between the Government of Afghanistan and the Taliban, prohibiting Taliban leaders from participating in peace talks with the Afghan government that could lead to an end to the conflict. 'Since the death of Mullah Omar and Mansur's assumption of leadership, the Taliban have conducted many attacks that have resulted in the death of tens of thousands of Afghan civilians and Afghan security forces as well as numerous U.S. and Coalition personnel.'
