A lot of people are questioning whether Taliban commander Pir Agha was really killed in a road accident. Well, yes, as far as I checked with my sources, that's really true. But question is, why are so many Afghans dying in road accidents? Read:
From earlier this year:

These road accidents have risen drastically since Taliban takeover of Afghanistan.

So, Rishi Sunak is getting some heat for being tough on China. He said China is ‘biggest threat’ to UK and that he will ban China's state-affiliated Confucius Institutes from UK. independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…
So, did Rishi say something out of place? No.

British security establishment, including the MI5 and the MI6, believes that China is UK's biggest threat.

In 2020, MI5 chief Ken McCallum said China is biggest long-term threat to the UK:

My comments here for @SCMPAsia where I discuss what's behind Taliban's outreach to Muslim countries like Malaysia, Indonesia + Taliban failing to uphold commitments they made including on presence of foreign terrorist groups in Afghanistan.

scmp.com/week-asia/poli…
Taliban was approaching states like Malaysia (almost 5,000km away) and Indonesia (more than 6,000km away), partly because members are desperate to gain some level of legitimacy “since they have lost all hope of recognition from Western countries”. - My comments.
“So they’re placing their bets on Muslim countries, and sure enough, their bets have even paid off to some extent. Türkiye is set to be the 7th country to accept Taliban-appointed diplomats. This is after Pakistan, China, Qatar, Turkmenistan, Iran & Russia have already done so.”
