"The security forces have recaptured several villages including the main base of Taliban rebels over the past four days," police chief Ekramudin Sari told Xinhua news agency.
Dand-e-Ghori was captured by Taliban two years ago and since then has been regarded as a Taliban stronghold in the northern Baghlan province.
The ongoing operations against the Taliban in Dand-e-Ghori would last until the area was cleansed of the insurgents, Sari said.
Taliban militants were yet to comment on the development.
