Terrorists linked to the ISIS group killed around 30 civilians, including children, in the central Afghan province of Ghor, the local government said Wednesday.
The incident occurred late Tuesday north of the provincial capital Firoz Koh, with the government calling it a revenge attack after a local ISIS commander was killed.
"Our security forces with the help of locals conducted an operation and killed a Daesh (ISIS) commander yesterday. Daesh fighters in return abducted around 30 villagers, mostly shepherds," Ghor Governor Nasir Khazeh told AFP.
"Their dead bodies were found by local people this morning."
There has so far been no official claim of responsibility from the group.
