Thousands of Top al-Qaeda, ISIS Terrorists Freed As Taliban Takes Afghanistan
|
[Legal Insurrection via Rantingly] "Bagram prison contained the 5,000 "highest value" Taliban, al-Qaeda and Islamic State fighters captured on the battlefield."
As Taliban forces swept through Afghanistan, thousands of high-level Taliban, al-Qaeda, and Islamic State terrorists have been set free.
Around 5,000 top terrorists fled when Afghan government forces surrendered Bagram Air Base, 40 miles from Kabul. The prison at the base housed some of the world’s most notorious jihadis besides the Guantanamo Bay terrorist detention center.
"Afghan forces at Bagram Air Base, home to a prison housing 5,000 inmates, surrendered to the Taliban, according to Bagram district chief Darwaish Raufi," The Associated Press reported on Monday. "The prison at the former U.S. base held both Taliban and Islamic State group fighters."
The Times of London reported the release of high-profile terrorists:
Thousands of Afghanistan’s most dangerous terrorism captives have been set free after the Taliban seized control of the former American base at Bagram and the prison known as Afghanistan’s Guantanamo Bay.
Bagram prison contained the 5,000 "highest value" Taliban, al-Qaeda and Islamic State fighters captured on the battlefield. A Taliban spokesman said they were "being evacuated to a safe place".
The freeing of these high-level terror operatives will have sweeping consequences on the raging worldwide jihad. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the slain ISIS chief was a Camp Bucca inmate, a U.S. detention center in Iraq. Camp Bucca was nicknamed the ’Jihadist university,’ where the future ISIS leadership came from. "Camp Bucca became what has been described as a ’university’ for the future leaders of IS, with inmates becoming radicalised and developing important contacts and networks," the BBC noted.
Former inmates from Guantanamo Bay make up the current Taliban leadership, including the mujahedeen commander who took the presidential palace in Kabul. "The Al-Jazeera news channel livestreamed the press conference from inside the palace, which showed a group of Taliban fighters sitting at the President’s desk before a fighter claimed he was a former inmate of the US-controlled Guantanamo Bay detention centre in Cuba," UK’s Daily Mail reported.
