Minimum edge cuts of distance-regular and strongly regular digraphs

In this paper, we show that the edge connectivity of a distance-regular digraph $\Gamma$ with valency $k$ is $k$ and for $k>2$, any minimum edge cut of $\Gamma$ is the set of all edges going into (or coming out of) a single vertex. Moreover we show that the same result holds for strongly regular digraphs. These results extend the same known results for undirected case with quite different proofs.
