Taliban fighters overran the mobile phone towers late Wednesday night in the Zarghun area of Mohammad Agha district, Col. Mohammad Jan Abid, the provincial crime branch chief, told Pajhwok Afghan News. They tied up the guards and set fire to the towers.

He said the attack came after the Taliban had warned mobile phone companies to cut their services between 6:00 pm and 6:00 am.
