Taliban officials in Zabul say that 26 people have died as a result of floods in this province.

The head of public works of Zabul says that Qalat, the capital of this province, and the districts of Arghandab, Siori, Shamalzo, Khak Afghan, Daichopan and Shahr Safa have witnessed floods.

He adds that 26 people including 13 Talib, four women, three children and six men have died as a result of these floods.
