Both men fled the scene to join the insurgency, according to a provincial police commander. The militant group, which has been fighting to unseat the Afghan government since being ousted from power about 15 years ago, took responsibility for the attack. The ministry said the attack was under investigation. The northern city last year fell briefly to the Taliban, being the first to come under militant control since 2001. U.S. and Afghan special forces drove the insurgents from the city within days, but Afghan and foreign officials in the country are increasingly concerned it could be overrun again, as the militants control the city’s outskirts and most of Kunduz province. Security has deteriorated across Afghanistan since most foreign troops pulled out in 2014. Army and police casualties are at a record high in 2016, despite increased U.S. military efforts this year—including airstrikes—to support local forces on the ground. Still, insider attacks happen sporadically in Afghanistan. In January, a policeman in the country’s second-largest city, Kandahar, killed 10 colleagues before joining the Taliban.
