The cash payments were never coming in on a strict schedule and would always face delays. It is unclear whether this current delay is a tactic to scare the #Taliban or just a standard procedural delay. Important to not promote rumours unless officially stated by the #UN 2/

Reading & hearing reports from #Panjshir, the #Taliban apparently launched decissive & ruthless operations against the NRF in the province, to suppress & abolish the #resistance before arrival of the winter season.
As a ruthless& lawness militia, the TB are committing war crimes.
#Taliban's codename of "sending to #Khakriz" for extrajudicial killings, reminds me of the AFG communist revolution time's codename of "sending to Pakistan", used by the intelligence agency under Hafizullah Ameen's govt., for killing of anti-govt elements.

UNAMA’s report highlights specific concerns with respect to 2 bodies within the TB govt.– the de facto Ministry of Propagation of Virtue&Prevention of Vice (that limit the human rights& freedoms, in particular of women& girls) and the de facto General Directorate of Intelligence.

#AFG Ministry of Education Notice:
"All girls' schools&high schools above the sixth grade are informed that the lessons of these schools have been postponed untill further notice. Whenever a comprehensive plan, in accordance with Sharia& Afghan tradition& culture, is developed...
...and the leadership of the IEA orders its implementation, then the schools& high schools will be informed accordingly."
Note:
#Taliban had over 6 months time to prepare "a comprehensive plan", but in my opinion, they are using girls education as bargaining chip for recognition.
#UNAMA reacted to the #Taliban's decision on the postponement of the reopening of girls schools in Afghanistan:

Maulawi Abdullah responds to #UNAMA complaint by arguing that elements within the organisation work for "certain candidates".

Requests head of UNAMA investigate this.

Although no clarification, most likely he is to Pres. Ghani...

Just listened to the interview.

Abdullah adopts quite a belligerent posture, threatening legal action & making accusations suggesting UNAMA has fallen prey to propaganda by various political circles working for benefit of certain candidates.
