LAST 24 HOURS 

  • A spokesman for the Taliban confirmed that non-combatants had been detained in Panjshir, including 30-40 in the first district in Panjshir. The Ulema Council has been arguing for their release. It is believed that well over 100 non-combatants have been arrested on charges of cooperating with the National Resistance Front.

  • A source with the Ministry of the Interior stated that Haji Abdul Rahman Salangi, a former government leader who was invited back to Afghanistan by the Taliban commission, has been arrested and is being detained. No further information was available.

  • Three female professors were fired from Badakhshan University by Naqibuddin Qazizadah, the recently appointed Taliban Chancellor of the University. One of the three fired was Muzhda Tabesh, the dean of the School of Social Sciences.

  • No conflicts have been reported in the last 24 hours.


NEXT 24 HOURS

  • Several sources stated the NRF will launch new attacks after taking a 24 hour break to rest and refit. The attacks are expected to take place in Panjshir and Badakhshan but may also include Baghlan province. Sources also stated that new weapons systems had been delivered and would be distributed to several units over the coming days. The source would not elaborate on the types and origin of the new weapons systems.

There may be elements within the Taliban worth engaging

By Obaidullah Baheer - Responsible Statecraft

There is observable growing frustration with the Taliban within and outside Afghanistan. International engagement over the past few months failed to achieve much positive change in the movement’s attitude. Instead Afghanistan witnessed the re-closure of girls’ high schools, crackdowns on the media and civil rights activists, and the rolling out of edicts that erase women from the public sphere. The failure of dialogue does not stem from the international community’s lack of leverage over the Taliban or the group’s disinterest in international recognition. The core issue seems to lie in the lack of unity of vision within the Taliban movement.
