Clash between Taliban, IS kills 1, wounds 2 in N. Afghan province
Islamic State (IS) group
SHIBERGHAN - Muslimchronicle
At least one militant loyal to the Islamic State (IS) group has been killed and two others injured as clash flared up between the radical IS outfit and Taliban fanatic group in Darzab district of the northern Jawzjan province on Sunday, provincial governor's spokesman Mohammad Reza Ghafori said.
The clash, according to the official, took place after the IS group killed a Taliban commander a few days before and the Taliban fighters in retaliation stormed the rival group's position Sunday morning, killing at least one fighter and injuring two others.
IS group has yet to make comment.
Taliban militants, according to the official, are getting preparation to launch a massive offensive against the IS group in Darzab and Qush Tepa districts.
IS fighters who gained ground in Darzab and neighboring Qush Tepa district one year ago have been fighting to consolidate positions and expand their influence in Jawzjan and adjoining Saripul, Faryab and Balkh provinces.

To 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Muslimchronicle
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home.
