MAIMANA, Afghanistan, June 18 (Xinhua) -- Taliban militants resumed attacks on Afghan security forces as the armed outfit's three-day ceasefire ended on Sunday night and the militants stormed several checkpoints in the northern Faryab province on Monday, provincial police spokesman Abdul Karim Yurash said.

According to the official, Taliban militants launched attacks on security checkpoints in Ghormach, Qaisar, Pashtunkot and Shirin Tagab districts in the wee hours of Monday and sporadic fighting has been continuing.

Afghan government announced ceasefire from June 12 to June 19 to encourage the Taliban to support the national reconciliation process.

Reciprocating the step, the armed group announced a three-day truce from Friday, the first day of Eid-ul-Fitr, to the end of Sunday.

On Sunday, an Afghan Security Council meeting chaired by President Ashraf Ghani extended the ceasefire for another 10 days.

However, the armed outfit has refused to extend and instead in an online statement released overnight Sunday asked its fighters to resume fighting against Afghan and foreign forces stationed in Afghanistan.
