#AFG A child in Aryub Zazi district in Paktia province was tortured and beaten over a PUBGI game by members of Taliban’s vice and virtue. During the interrogations, the Taliban asked the child what his father did? Child replied, he was a former member of ANDSF, and got martyred. At this moment , the Taliban beat the kid, ordering him to say, “ No, your father died as a dog.” Afterwards, the kid's uncles were summoned, one uncle urged Taliban to let go, and they will make sure he doesn’t play PUBG. Then, Taliban opened fire, killing his uncle, wounding

The mastermind of Abbey Gate attack was Salahudin aka Rajab. Salahudin was trained by AQ In Waziristan and joined the HQN in 2009. He worked for several years under Tajmir Jawad, the GDI Deputy with links to AQ. Salahudin later became in-charge for Kabul Katiba of the ISKP

with direct link to the ISIS Core. There is no report that he was either targeted or killed by the Taliban. Instead, many reports suggest his close ties with the HQN and GDI. Salahudin also led and organized the attack on Muzamel, the Taliban’s governor for Balkh.

#AFG There are reports of an explosion inside Taliban’s governor office in Balkh in the city of Mazari sharif. Explosion took place as powerful governor of Balkh for Taliban Muzamil was inside a meeting. A Taliban delegation was in Balkh for meetings. According to Taliban security sources, “a number of Taliban including governor among casualties.”

Qari Fateh Bajauri is the in-charge of military and operational affairs for ISKP. Formerly, he led the Fatah (Victory) Katiba for ISKP during Sayeed Orakzai. Later, Aslam Farooqi appointed him as in-charge of the ISKP intelligence. He recently established multiple training centers for the ISKP fighters in tribal areas. His movement to Kabul was not reported, but if he went to Kabul then it was a trap by SAM ( shahab al-Mahajer) because QFB ( Qari Fateh Bajauri) was supporting Aslam Farooqi against SAM.

#AFG Brutal attack against one of Afghanistan’s most oppressed communities. Dashte Barche in West Kabul have been constantly the target of deadly ISKP attacks. Hazaras and Shias murdered inside their classrooms. #NOTJUSTNUMBERSLIVES A doctor in Watan hospital confirms, a number of dead bodies inside the hospital.

#AFG “The Taliban have started house to house search in Kandahar city and Spinboldak targeting people who worked with the ANDSF and former government. During search, they are asking women to leave these houses in the absence of female police and check all sorts of personal belongings. If they find IDs or find military shoes, they beat and imprison them. People are scared and cannot object. Yesterday, they killed two persons while searching the house of a former ANDSF commander.” Residents in Kandahar city and Spin Boldak tells me.

Constant security and intelligence failures. Attacks against major Shia and Hazara Neighbourhood’s continue, communities extremely vulnerable.

August 15, 2021, I spoke to @NatashaFatah from Kabul about the chaotic scenes at the Hamid Karzai international airport. “That deep sense of betrayal by the intentional community and the government is there, in terms of letting people down.” August 15, 2021, I spoke to @NatashaFatah from Kabul.

#AFG History painfully repeated itself on August 15, 2021 due to monumental failures of Afghan leadership & their insincere allies at more painful cost to Afghans. This is 12:30 pm, August 15 when the rumors circled around the city that Taliban entered Kabul, everyone panicked, government officials stuck in traffic when they were heading towards the airport.

۲۲ اگست ۲۰۲۱ بس ها از هوتل سرینا به سوی میدان، راه افتادند. اهالی رسانه، جامعه مدنی، کارمندان دولتی در نیمه شب تاریک و پر از خوف و هراس کابل را ترک می کردند. سفیر قطر در آغاز کاروان بود و نخستین دسته طالبان را در نزدیکی وزارت دفاع دیدیم.
ترک کردن زادگاه با اشک و اندوه همراه بود. ۲۲ اگست ۲۰۲۱ اسپیشل فورس امریکا و طالبان در چند متری همدیگر قرار داشتند. همه به میدان رسیدند و صبحگاهان گروه گروه به طیاره داخل شدند. آواره‌گی آغاز می یافت. طالبان نتوانستند نیروی متخصص کاری را نگه دارند. فضای وحشت آلود و عدم پذیرش همدیگر گران تمام شد.

Same district was the target of at least 1 drone strike after Taliban take over on August 15, 2021. In that strike, according to local residents “ foreign fighters residing with their families were targeted.” AQ has a presence in GHAZNI for many years now. @MYusufzai

اس تھریڈ میں تحریک طالبان پاکستان کے نامور شاعر ہاشم سادات کا درد بھرے لہجہ میں افغان طالبان سے گلے شکوں سے بھرے نظم” بعنوان یک طرفہ محبت” کا خلاصہ ہے جس میں افغان طالبان کو بے وفائیوں پر عار دلائی گئی ہے۔ یہ نظم افغان طالبان کا پاکستانی طالبان کو موسم سرما ۲۰۲۰ میں 1/5 لکھے گئے خط کے جواب میں لکھا گیا ہے جس میں پاکستانی طالبان کو غیر ملکی جنگجوں قرار دے کر افغانستان میں طالبان کے زیراقتدار رہنے کے لئے سخت شرائط کا ذکر کیا گیا تھا۔ شاعرکہا کہنا ہے کہ افغان طالبان کو جو فتح ملی ہے اس میں پاکستانی طالبان کا خون پسینہ بھی شامل ہےمگر 2/5
