[ColonelCassad] The United States has officially condemned the shooting by the Taliban
...Arabic for students...
of 22 Afghan special forces soldiers and officers who were trying to surrender to the Taliban. The episode took place on June 16 this year in Davlat-Abad, Faryab province (a town near the border with Turkmenistan), where active festivities between the Afghan army and Talibs, who are trying to seize the historic provincial capital, continue.

The Taliban refused to take them prisoner and shot them on the grounds that they served the Americans (most of these special forces were trained and trained by the Americans, they are also one of the most combat-ready units of the Afghan army, which periodically gave the Taliban a fight).

A very demonstrative cruelty against the background of mild conditions for ordinary soldiers and coppers, who are even given money to travel home. This execution transparently hints how the Taliban intend to treat those who actively served the United States during the years of occupation. In fact, using this example, you can assess the motivation behind the complaints of translators and US volunteers in Afghanistan, who demand that they be evacuated from the country.

On the other hand, the Taliban usually take responsibility for such acts of violence and weave them into their propaganda. In this case, he officially denies his involvement, although the video can indeed be seen surrendering military and Taliban fighters.
