A commander of the loyalists of ISIS group was killed along with another militant in eastern Nangarhar province of Afghanistan.
The Ministry of Defense said the two militants were killed in the restive Achin district, Afghan Khaama Press (KP) reported.
No further details were given by the ministry and it is yet not clear if the militants were killed in Afghan forces raid or US airstrike.
This comes as at least two loyalists of the group were killed in a US drone strike in Achin district last week.
Both the Afghan and US forces conducted regular strikes against ISIS loyalists in this province.
