Kabul/UNI/Sputnik: One member of the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF) was killed and three others were injured in a Monday gunfire incident at the Kabul airport, according to the Bundeswehr.

"This morning at 4:13 a.m. CEST [02:13 GMT], a gunfire exchange broke out between Afghan security forces and unknown attackers at the north gate of the Kabul airport. A member of the Afghan security forces was killed and three others were wounded," the German Joint Forces Operations Command said on Twitter.

Bundeswehr said that US and German forces were also involved in the Monday incident, but none of them were injured.

After days of fighting with the security forces and capturing territories, Taliban entered Kabul city a week ago and took control over the Presidential Palace.

President Ashraf Ghani fled the country as the insurgents entered the country.
