Taliban tells Kabul residents to hand over weapons, munitions in one week
|
[TASS] The Taliban radical movement has informed the residents of Kabul of the necessity to turn over weapons and ammunition, as well as state-owned vehicles within a week, the 1TV channel reported on Friday.
According to the channel, the militants threatened to undertake measures in case of a refusal to hand over the weapons voluntarily.
On August 18, Reuters reported similar demands by the Taliban when the representatives of the movement vowed to act openly for the first time.
After the Biden administration had announced the end of Washington’s 20-year-long military operation in Afghanistan and the launch of its troop pullout, the Taliban embarked on an offensive against Afghan government forces.
On August 15, Taliban fighters swept into Kabul without encountering any resistance, and gained full control over the Afghan capital within a few hours. Afghanistan’s President Ashraf Ghani said he had stepped down to prevent any bloodshed and subsequently fled the country.
Vice President Amrullah Saleh announced that, in the absence of the head of state, the constitution empowered him to become the caretaker president and urged the Afghan people to join the resistance against the Taliban. The armed resistance in the country’s Panjshir Province is led by Ahmad Massoud, the son of renowned guerilla commander Ahmad Shah Massoud (1953-2001). At present, Western nations are evacuating their citizens and embassy staff.
