While one person was shot killed by unknown gunmen today morning in #Jalalabad, @bsarwary now reported about 12 hanged bodies in various parts of the city.
#Extrajudicial_killings in Jalalabad is a new normal but 12 hanged bodies in one day, if confirmed, will be a shocking news.

"Caliphate soldiers targeted a member of the intelligence of the Taliban, in PD5 of Jalalabad City, with pistol shots, which led to his death."

The largest cities in Afghanistan are #Kabul, #Herat, #Mazar_e_Sharif, #Kandahar, and #Jalalabad. If any cities in #Afghanistan were to have telecom infrastructure and internet access, it's those five cities.
Los centros sanitarios del país están sometidos a una gran presión por la falta de personal y equipos. Durante años, el sistema sanitario afgano ha dependido de la ayuda exterior. Si esta se detiene, podría entrar en un colapso total #Afganitán

#MSF continúa con sus actividades médicas en sus cinco proyectos en #Afganistán: Herat, Kandahar, Khost, Kunduz y Lashkar Gah. Tras el fin de los combates, la población se puede mover con más facilidad y ha habido un aumento de pacientes, especialmente en Herat y Lashkar Gah.
#Khost: Mercados, sistemas de transporte locales y muchas clínicas privadas no funcionan plenamente.
Algunas pacientes han dado a luz en casa durante la última semana porque no estaban seguras de que los centros de salud estuvieran abiertos.

#3settembre #Afghanistan Oggi, dopo le tradizionali preghiere settimanali, potrebbe essere annunciato nuovo governo e presentato al mondo il misterioso leader Hibatullah Akhundzada. Ieri revisionando bozze ho trovato questo brano dal mio “Missione Incompiuta” 2015👇profetico 1/20
Dall’imbocco della valle del Panshir continuano ad arrivare notizie contrastanti: i talebani (anche via ToloTv) fanno sapere di una loro avanzata, la resistenza parla di una vittoria schiacciante. Tendo a credere alla seconda considerando l’orografia della zona.Più difficile 2/20
verificare se davvero l’NRF - come sostiene - abbia preso Taqar (sarebbe strategica per uscire dall’isolamento del Panshir aprendo linee di rifornimento come fece Massoud) e sacche in Badakhshan, Kapisa, Baghlan 3/20
Nelle ultime 48h un imponderabile caso ha fatto sì che dedicassi tutto il mio tempo ad aiutare calciatrici di #Herat, cicliste e tanti esseri umani fino al loro arrivo a #KabulAiport. Più di 70 persone sono state poi portate al sicuro dai nostri militari attraverso #AbbeyGate.
Non credo riuscirò mai descrivere queste ore che sono state fra le più incredibili della mia vita, in contatto costante con donne e uomini afghani in fuga, disperati, e con i nostri militari a #Kabul. Poi, 4h dopo l'ultimo ingresso, l'attentato. Esattamente lì.
La tragedia, la felicità. La gioia, la disperazione. I sommersi e i salvati. Non mi era mai capitato di esserci dentro così, dove un punto giusto trovato su google maps o no, un messaggio letto o no, un telefonino acceso o no, una scelta fatta o no, fa la differenza più estrema.
The #Taliban higher education commission had a meeting with the administration of #Herat university and put forward their conditions. They initially demanded that women can only be taught by other female teachers. Upon protests by the admin, stating the lack of female [1/3]
the commission replied that it was the fault of the university for not having produced enough female lecturers through the years. The #Taliban did not struggle for 20 years for a non-Islamic set up for education to be in place [2/3]
The commission eventually conceded to letting old and pious lecturers teach the female staff. The admin also complained that they did not have enough rooms to segregate both genders. The commission has asked the admin to submit a proposal for consideration. [3/3]
1. questa settimana il presidente #Draghi ha detto al #TG1 che i nostri soldati uccisi in #Afghanistan sono eroi. Non voglio offendere la loro memoria. Ma c'è un limite alla propaganda
2. di quello che hanno fatto i nostri soldati in #Afghanistan,noi sappiamo poco. L'informazione fattuale e verificabile in modo indipendente è estremamente scarsa. Dobbiamo ammettere che conosciamo solo la punta dell'iceberg
3. per esempio,sappiamo che, secondo la diplomazia USA, l'Italia era sospettata di pagare mazzette ai Talebani e signori della guerra per scongiurare il rischio di attacchi alle nostre truppe

Nuovo thread con l’aggiornamento della situazione in #Afghanistan oggi 17 agosto. Vi anticipo che mi attendo che gli aggiornamenti saranno meno rispetto ai giorni scorsi.
Si inizia subito con questo: una prima assoluta nella storia dellmAfghanistan. Il portavoce dei #Talebani che risponde alle domande di una giornalista donna di @TOLOnews.
I #Talebani hanno dichiarato l’amnistia generale per tutti i funzionari statali. (Furbi: senza di loro non possono governare, la burocrazia serve sempre).
#Afghanistan 🇦🇫: thread sulla situazione a #Kabul sulla base delle fonti attendibili sul campo.
Si sono sentiti colpi di arma da fuoco nelle strade della capitale afghana #Kabul questa mattina.
Il Ministero degli Interni afghano ha subito dopo confermato che i #Talebani stanno penetrando nella capitale da più parti.
Mich fesselt die Entwicklung in #Afghanistan seit Tagen. Vormarsch der #Taliban wird so unglaublich vielen Menschen das Leben kosten.
Gleichzeitig die #Realitätsverweigerung von #Nehammer.
Und den letzten Nerv kostet mich Berichterstattung.
Für letztere hab ich Tipps. 1/13

Warum diese Schlagzeile? Ich versteh es nicht.
Eine Abschiebung nach AFG derzeit wäre nicht problematisch, sondern SCHWERE MENSCHENRECHTSVERLETZUNG. Außerdem ist es faktisch UNMÖGLICH.

The #Taliban claimed to have taken Lashkar Gar, Helmand's capital, earlier this morning, and that's either true or soon will be; now this. Two provincial capitals down already today, 15 overall. #Afghanistan
#Taliban are in Pul-i-Alam, the capital of Logar province; it is either overrun or very nearly. Third provincial capital to fall today, 16th in total.
It was expected that Tarinkot, the capital of the Uruzgan province, would fall today and the governor now says he was asked by tribal leaders not to fight the Taliban so as not to destroy the city. If and when that will be the 4th today and 17th overall.
Voy a intentar hacer un hilo de uno de los días más complicados que recuerdo en #Afganistan

#Taliban have captured 10 provincial capitals:
1. Zaranj (Nimruz province), 6 Aug
2. Sheberghan (Jawzjan), 7 Aug
3-5. Sar-i-Pul, Kunduz, and Taluqan (Takhar), 8 Aug
6. Aybak (Samangan), 9 Aug
7-9. Pul-i-Khumri (Baghlan), Farah, Faizabad (Badakhshan), 10 Aug

10. Ghazni, 12 Aug
Fairly visible on this map [nyti.ms/3m0S5Ef] the main holdouts are the Hazarajat, some areas surrounding Kabul, and parts of Balkh province around Mazar-i-Sharif.
Herat in the west, and Kandahar and Lashkar Gah (Helmand) in the south, do not seem likely to hold for long.

One provincial capital has fallen in #Afghanistan already today; unwise to bet against a second going down and maybe three. By the end of the week and surely by the end of next, half or more of the 34 provincial capitals will be gone, de facto the whole north, west, and south.
Catastrophic 72hrs for #Afghanistan, as the #Taliban capture 5 provincial capitals -- taking military bases, airports, emptying prisons etc.
The U.S. (then NATO) withdrawal is clearly an utter disaster, but that ship has sailed -- muted response from #Washington says everything.

There is little doubt that sometimes the best way to make sense of the transmission of texts, debates and commentaries is to dive deeply into codices of collected texts (majmūʿa-s) #manuscripts #Islamic #intellectual_history 1/
One good example is the majmūʿa MS Majlis-e Shūrā (Tehran) 5284 which includes ten texts mostly copied by Sulṭān Muḥammad b. ʿAlī Shāh Iṣfahānī in 962/1555 in Bharuch in West India 2/
The collection begins with some works of Jalāl al-Dīn Davānī (d. 1502) - usually called Muḥammad b. Asʿad al-Ṣiddīqī in the incipits - reflecting on Naṣīr al-Dīn al-Ṭūsī (d. 1274) works on the #intellect and #nafs_al_amr and on the logical notion of #conception_taṣawwur 3/
