The operation was conducted by the quick reaction police unit in Folad and Sarfolad areas of the district last week, the governor's spokesman, Daud Ahmadi, told Pajhwok Afghan News.
He said the dead included Maulvi Abdul Ahad Fazli, brother of the Taliban-designated district chief for Washer, and Maulvi Hamidi, the rebel military commission chief for the district.
Maulvi Abdul Haq, the group’s judge, a mine maker named Zabit and Mullah Abdul Khaliq, a local guerrilla leader, were also killed in the security operation.
Ahmadi said seven Arab and Pakistani militants were also killed and three others detained. A large cache of weapons and ammunitions was seized.
Dozens of militants were killed in another recent offensive by Afghan and foreign troops in the district. However, he did not reveal the exact causality figure.
