He says security forces are planning an operation to retake the area.  <br\/> <br\/>Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid confirmed that the fighters captured the entire district along with weapons and military vehicles.  <br\/> <br\/>Mohammad Yusouf Ayubi, head of the Kunduz provincial council, said hundreds of civilians have fled the fighting and warned that &#8220;if the central government does not pay attention to Kunduz, the Taliban will overrun Kunduz city as they did last year.&#8221;  <br\/> <br\/>Afghan security forces are currently battling the Taliban in at least 15 of the country&#8217;s 34 provinces, according to the Defense Ministry. In Kunduz the insurgents are threatening areas near the provincial capital of the same name.  <br\/> <br\/>The Taliban seized a district in the northern Baghlan province last week, and heavy fighting is underway in the southern Helmand and eastern Nangarhar provinces.  <br\/> <br\/>In the capital, meanwhile, a soldier was killed early Saturday by a sticky bomb placed on his vehicle, Kabul police said.  <br\/> <br\/> <\/div><i>Copyright 2016 The Associated Press.
