Afghanistan, Taliban: “Conquered Panshir, the country is free”

The Taliban claimed full control of the Panshir Valley, the only one that had not yet fallen to their rapid advance due to the resistance of the men led by Ahmad Massoud. Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid declared this, saying that “with this victory our country is completely free” and “out of the quagmire of war”.

On the Twitter account attributable to the National Resistance Front, Panjshir_Province, there is talk of “a strong attack by land and air suffered in the night”. “While the Taliban launch ferocious attacks in Panjshir, the head of the Pakistani ISI (the intelligence services of Islamabad, ed) is in Kabul. Furthermore, the world is watching”. Last night Massoud said he was willing to dialogue with the Taliban and to put an end to the fighting in the Valley on condition that they withdraw.
