Younus Rasouli, deputy governor of Farah province, said police attacked a village in Bala Buluk district Friday after being informed that Taliban militants had ordered residents out and taken it over to use as a base.
The police called in air support from the U.S.-led coalition during the battle, Rasouli said.
