So much for 'Taliban 2.0': Fighters shoot dead journalist as he raises Afghan flag in defiance at Jalalabad protest as Kabul 'car thief' is tarred and locals claim woman was shot dead for not wearing a burqa in rural province

  • Journalist Zahidullah Nazirzada was reportedly shot dead today raising the Afghan national flag in Jalalabad

  • A young woman was shot dead by Taliban in north of the country for reportedly refusing to wear a hijab

  • Harrowing image shows her parents crouching next to her body as she lies in a pool of blood last week

  • The jihadists have been dubbed 'Taliban 2.0' for their media charm offensive and claims that they are modern

  • But damning evidence proves they still cling to their barbaric world view as they bar refugees from fleeing

  • There was a stampede at the airport on Tuesday as fighters marched around with guns firing warning shots

  • Video showed despairing women at the gates of the airport pleading with US troops to let them through

  • A 21-year-old ex-teacher who fled to Kabul earlier this year said she was now afraid to leave the house

  • An ex-interpreter watched as the Taliban raided his home via an app as he remains holed up in a safehouse
