Islamic Emirate Denies Detention of Its Forces in Panjshir
[ToloNews] Local officials in Panjshir province denied the reports that Islamic Emirate forces have been detained by the Resistance® Front in the province.

The provincial governor’s front man, Abubakar Sediqqi, confirmed that a number of rockets hit some areas of Dara district but denied casualties to Islamic Emirate forces and the fall of a village to the Resistant Front.

"This is an absolutely inaccurate allegation. The forces of the Islamic Emirate are settled in all districts of Panjshir. Last night a number of rockets were fired by the opposition forces which didn’t cause any casualties," he said.

Earlier, the Resistance® Front published some videos and claimed that dozens of the Islamic Emirate were killed and dozens of others were arrested by its forces.

The videos were published by Sebghat Ahmadi, a front man for the Resistant Front.

"Even if the number of the government’s armed opposition is less and they have a limited geographic area, there should be negotiations with them,’ said Barna Salehi, a political analyst.

"The only solution for Afghanistan is that all conflictive parties should sit together and make a decision on Afghanistan’s fate," said Barna Salehi, a political analyst.

There have been many reports earlier about the armed conflicts in Panjshir, but the Islamic Emirate has denied them.

rule, fighting broke out across the North as Resistance® forces attempted to remind the world that an active resistance exists. Panjshir witnessed the bulk of the fighting, and most incidents appear to have been offensive actions taken by the NRF against Taliban positions. At the end of the day, the NRF announced it had liberated seven villages from Taliban control and were continuing their advances toward larger Taliban bases. A source allied with the Resistance® said the actions represent the opening of a campaign to liberate Panjshir but was skeptical that the offensive could be maintained for long. The force ratio in Panjshir was last estimated to stand at 23:1 in favor of the Taliban, and the NRF is hampered by a lack of light/heavy transport.
I would give you the Conflict Tracker table of information form the link, dear Reader — it has details about each of the encounters in the region over the past twenty-four hours, but it’s an image, and I don’t know how to get those into a Rantburg article. Always another learning curve to climb! ;-) The key datum for our purposes is that the NRF killed five Talibs and took 40 prisoner in the Panjshir’s Arezoo Valley. Possibly that’s what Talib frontman Abubakar Sediqqi is denying.
