The Trump administration's peace deal with the Taliban was dealt yet another blow as the Afghan government announced it was resuming offensive operations against the insurgent group following a spate of deadly terrorist attacks

Afghanistan's President Ashraf Ghani announced the resumption of offensive operations during a televised address to the nation that took place in the wake of several deadly terrorist attacks, including one that targeted a maternity hospital that killed at least 13 people, including two newborn babies."I strongly condemn recent attacks on a hospital in Kabul and Nangarhar province which killed a number of innocent people including women and children," Ghani said Tuesday.

The Pentagon has recently ceased providing data on the number of Taliban attacks and the number of US airstrikes in Afghanistan, citing the sensitivities involved in the negotiations with the Taliban.A US defense official told CNN that the US military conducted nearly 100 such defensive strikes against the Taliban during the month of March.
