I travelled within the city of #Kabul today. Here is what I observed:
1) The #Taliban are on constant patrol with humvees and rangers. Armed to the teeth.
2) They are conducting traffic and guarding important buildings. [1/5]

3) Saw close to no women on the roads and all shops were shuttered. What was interesting was that there were no large or armoured vehicles on the road either.
4) The Taliban were courteous and would greet you every time you pass but no checking. [2/5]

5) Asked a Taliban commander if it was okay for me to interview him so he can help disseminate some calm among the population. He said he had to seek permission, on the call he just asked them if he could or could not and when the answer was no, he politely declined. [3/5]
