<div style=3D"text-align: justify;"><strong>As of 07 August, 1800 hrs: </st=
rong>The armed clash continues as of the time of writing. The intention of =
the OAG members appears to be to overrun the ANSF outpost and thus establis=
h a position closer to the city. &nbsp;As such, the fighting may intensify =
during the night.&nbsp;<br /><br />Following developments in Shibirghan tod=
ay, it is plausible that the armed opposition intends to also conduct an as=
sault on Aybak City. While the number of OAG members in Samangan was not be=
lieved to be large, an ANSF operation earlier today in Dara-e Suf-e Payin D=
istrict ended without success (see AFGHANISTAN/NORTH/A/06082021/#01-U1), wh=
ile the armed opposition managed to maintain two checkpoints on the Mazar-e=
 Sharif-Aybak Road in Hazrat-e Sultan since 30 July (see AFGHANISTAN/NORTH/=
A/30072021/#03-U2 ).&nbsp;<br /><br />ANSF themselves have limited capacity=
 in Samangan given historically low levels of OAG activity, and, without ex=
ternal support, are at a disadvantage should the IEA bring significant rein=
forcements from outside the province.&nbsp;&nbsp;</div>
