Taliban Forces Clash with the Tajik Border Guards Near Sher Khan Bandar
[KhaamaPress] Local sources in Kunduz province reported festivities between Tajik border guards and Taliban
...mindless ferocity in a turban...
forces on the border between the two countries.

According to a resident of Kunduz province’s Imam Sahib district, whose name was omitted due to the sensitivity of the matter, the clash occurred near Sher Khan Bandar
...which always makes me think of the tiger in The Mowgli Stories...
on Monday, May 16, and lasted for four hours.

He continued by stating that the border guard festivities began after a verbal confrontation, with the Taliban firing the first shot.

.The clash happens between as the Russian President Vladimir Putin
..President-for-Life of Russia. He gets along well with other presidents for life. He is credited with bringing political stability and re-establishing something like the rule of law, which occasionally results in somebody dropping dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substance. Under Putin, a new group of business magnates controlling significant swathes of Russia's economy has emerged, all of whom have close personal ties to him. The old bunch, without close personal ties to Putin, are in jail or in exile or dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substances...
and Tajik President Emomali Rahmon met three days ago to discuss bilateral security issues.

Previous skirmishes have also occurred on the Afghan-Pak border, as well as the Islam Qala border with Iran.

Local Taliban officials have denied the border festivities, but prominent Taliban officials have remained silent.
