KABUL, Feb. 10 (Xinhua) -- About 700 security personnel have been recently commissioned to security forces under Afghanistan's Taliban-led caretaker government after receiving military trainings, according to related authorities on Thursday.
In the southern Helmand province, 600 soldiers on Wednesday graduated from a training center of the al-Azm Military Corps after completing basic military and ideological trainings, the defense ministry said in a statement, adding that the Taliban administration will continue to provide necessary trainings to its security personnel across the country.
Earlier on Thursday, 100 intelligence officers received their certificates during a ceremony in the southern Kandahar province, the provincial intelligence directorate said.
After the Taliban's takeover of power in August and formation of a caretaker government in September last year, Afghanistan's security and defense forces under the former administration were disbanded. ■
