The Taliban have arrested over 600 Islamic State (IS) terrorists in the past three months.
Citing Afghan intelligence service spokesman appointed by the Taliban, Ariana News broadcaster said that the security situation in the country is improving, reported Sputnik.
The Taliban took control of Afghanistan in mid-August and since then IS has ramped up attacks across the country.
