KUNDUZ, Afghanistan, Nov. 19 (Xinhua) -- Fourteen Taliban militants, including a militants' divisional commander, were killed in an airstrike in Afghanistan's northern Kunduz province, local police said Tuesday.

Those among the killed militants was Ezatullah, known as Hamza, one of the outfit key local commanders and two of his close subordinates, according to the statement.
