| 2015-09-29 |
| [Tolo News] On the eve of the National Unity Government's one year anniversary, the Taliban launched a massive and well executed attack against the strategic northern city of Kunduz and by late afternoon Monday had taken control of the city. The attack was launched at 3 a.m local time Monday from within Kunduz city. In addition, murderous Moslems closed off the only four access points into the city -- effectively preventing troops from entering and civilians from fleeing. Officials said that the turbans have also closed the airport road. Some reports state that hundreds of Taliban members split up into groups and carried out the coordinated attack. Heavy fighting ... as opposed to the more usual name-calling or slapsy... has been ongoing throughout the day and so far the Taliban has seized the provincial council building, the offices of the local High Peace Council, the National Directorate of Security ...the Afghan national intel agency... (NDS) building, UNAMA offices and other key official facilities including private banks. Officials also reported that the Taliban has over run the local prison and freed all prisoners. Reports indicate that heavy fighting continues around the police headquarters and the provincial governor's office. However by late afternoon reinforcements arrived from Kabul ...the capital of Afghanistan. Home to continuous fighting from 1992 to 1996 between the forces of would-be strongman and Pak ISI/Jamaat-e-Islami sock puppet Gulbuddin Hekmayar and the Northern Alliance, a period which won Hek the title Most Evil Man in the Worldand didn't do much for the reputations of the Northern Alliance guys either.... and are stationed in the Dasht-e-Kandahari area were they are waiting for orders to storm the city. |
