In Afghanistan: Taliban use human shield to advance into Panjshir

Afghan Vice President Amrullah Saleh, who, based on the Afghan constitution, declared himself acting head of state after President Ashraf Ghani fled the country, reports on attempts by the Taliban (a terrorist group banned in Russia) to advance in Panjshir. According to Saleh, the Taliban *, having suffered several defeats in the clashes in the gorge, decided to switch to a different tactic.

According to Amrullah Saleh, the Taliban * block off access to humanitarian aid, and also “take the elderly, women and children hostage” in order to use the “human hostage shield” to advance to Panjshir.

According to some reports, the Taliban militants do indeed detain several dozen representatives of the Tajik and Hazara population of Afghanistan. At the same time, it is reported that the Taliban militants have deployed their forces to the south and north of the Panjshir Valley, which is currently controlled by representatives of the so-called Front of the Afghan National Resistance FANR under the command of Ahmad Zia Massoud, the son of Ahmad Shah Massoud.

Afghan news service:

The Taliban, hiding behind a "human shield", captured three districts north of the Panjshir Valley. Thus, they were one step closer to the stronghold of resistance in Panjshir.

We are talking about three districts in Baghlan province: Bano, Deh Saleh and Puli-Hisar. Previously, these areas were controlled by the forces of Massoud Jr.

Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid:

Taliban forces have cleared the Bano, Deh Saleh and Puli Hisar districts in Baghlan and deployed in Takhar, Badakhshan and Andarab, preparing to liberate Panjshir.

We will remind that on the eve there were messages about the first battles of FANR with the Taliban. Massoud's forces were believed to have gained the upper hand and blockaded one of the Taliban's vanguard south of the Salang Pass. After that, there was no news of the development of the success of FANR in this direction.

Taliban, hiding behind a "human shield"

Well, here's the real face, so do not say that these Taliban are no longer what they were. In a word - a group banned in Russia, period.

It remains to be seen how the country's leadership will put this point ...

[Vladimir_3]

this is nothing more than one of the statements of one of the belligerents. how it really is - xs. but to declare this is beneficial - 1. you can whine about the fact that we are good, they are bad, help; 2 - you can write off military failures ;, 3 - you can dehumanize the enemy; 4 - you can keep your own population subordinate. Solid profit. Therefore, I would not be surprised that these statements are fake. I won’t be surprised at their veracity - a war has been going on in the country for so many years, a person’s life there doesn’t cost ANYTHING.

"beret hostage of old people, women and children"To use the" human hostage shield "to advance to Panjshir

In a word, terrorists. But, here many praise them. No shame!

In a word, terrorists.

The most interesting is who breeds these terrorists, who is behind the Taliban, Al-Qaeda, ISIS ... These are the main world terrorists, and the earth is still wearing it, none of them answered for their crimes against humanity.

The Taliban, on the other hand, received huge stocks of weapons from overseas benefactors, including armored vehicles and aircraft. Everyone pretends that this is normal, so "leave" or "forget" for the bandits mountains of weapons and supplies, in fact, creating conditions for a war in Central Asia. When the US is punished for its crimes, the big question is. Probably when they begin to discuss this in the UN, calling a spade a spade, to begin with.

[Vladimir_3]

many sing the praises of the United States and are not at all embarrassed by the terrorist activities of this state entity. for a long time I have not heard groans from the progressive public about innocently killed Afghans, Libyans, Syrians. and more than a possible lie about the Taliban began to cry. Where are Billy's proofs? Now there are even homeless smarts. Has the battery run out again?

[Stas157]

is not confused by terrorist activity this state entity

Questions to the Supreme Court of Russia! Why did he recognize the "good" Taliban as terrorists, but not the "evil" USA?

What do you think?

[Vladimir_3]

and what is there to think, everything is clear. Or are you a little infantile child who loves to stomp and pout, almost according to you? then - my sympathy for you.

Nothing got anywhere. Why are you sure that the former vice president of the puppet government Ghani is telling the truth?

Based on your logic, should you unconditionally believe everything that is written in VO?

And to whom?
Which media are 100% trustworthy?
Any information in any media can be perceived in two ways.
If you have access to verified information from trusted sources, then say so - this news is fake, with evidence, then I will be the first to unsubscribe from VO.

No one.
None.
You should only believe those data that can be verified personally.

[Popandos]

Then why is your comment

Why are you sure that the former vice president of the puppet government Ghani is telling the truth?

After all, you cannot check him personally, and therefore the chances that Ghani is telling the truth are 50 to 50.

Quite right. The truth is always somewhere in between. Not Ghani, but Saleh in this case.

[Popandos]

You see yourself a little feikanuli, but I did not check, and quoted you.

[Sidor Amenpodestovich]

Amrullah Saleh, who was the deputy prime minister in the government of President Ashraf Ghani, said that the Taliban are using a human shield.
I wrote that.

[Popandos]

was wrong, I'm sorry.
But nevertheless, you cannot say with 100% certainty whether the Taliban used the "human shield" or not.
I still trust VO, so I tend to believe that what is described in the article is true.

[Vladimir_3]

based on formal logic, this is just a repost. and the veracity of the statement remains on the conscience of the representative of the Ghani government. taking them at their face value is the height of stupidity

[taiga2018]

Well, that's it climbed

Well, that Western propaganda got in, the one that, for example, claimed that the leader of North Korea ordered to shoot one of his generals with a CANNON, and then it turned out that the general is alive and well ... Or the same Western propaganda that is trying to convince the whole world that Ukraine is a democratic state and no TV channels are closed there ...

[Cat Alexandrovich]

Probably yes. Although the information is still from not very reliable sources, without details and details.

[gohomeyanki]

Well, there is no photo or video, you were easily divorced. This is a message so that the Khazarians and Tajiks began to defend themselves against the Taliban with a frenzy, and not give up when they see the Taliban.

In general, it is strange how the Afghan army did not really resist, this indicates at least the good work of the Taliban propaganda. There is only one conclusion: the population believes them more than this news.

[Egor53]

Of course the Taliban are terrorists. After all, both the United States and Israel are also terrorists. And Russia maintains diplomatic relations with them.

[Prisoner]

How many wolf do not comb, he will remain a wolf.

[minus]

But the point is something else here. There is no faith in this Saleh either. The white helmets over there also say a lot.

[Asad]

I agree with you, everyone now has smartphones. So proof can always be provided, then they filled up twenty barmaley, and in the end one sneaker.

[askort154]

The Anglo-Saxons kindled a fire in the "underbelly" of Russia, China, Iran, leaving all their weapons there, now they will look from afar at this chaos, chewing popcorn and, from time to time, toss woods into this fire.

[Mountain shooter]

For the Pashtuns, Tajiks are not people. Therefore, it is easy to believe in the "human shield". These can. And their hand will not flinch. Then the defenders of the gorge will not last long. East is a delicate matter. There is no mercy for "not your own". And often their own ...

[Thrifty]

A terrorist in any guise of a terrorist! The Taliban do not want to get out of their dense Middle Ages, modern civilization is not for them, it is more convenient for them to live in the Stone Age ...

[Per se.]

Quote: Thrifty

Only these troglodytes have modern weapons, and it would be better if they were at the level of the Stone Age, or at least the Middle Ages, in their essence and development.

[Vladimir_3]

there is a whole "superpower of an exceptional nation" of troglodytes with the most modern weapons and a very loving terror against peaceful people. and which is actually responsible for this mess. And so yes - it would be better if ALL troglodytes were in the Stone Age, but this does not happen

[Troll]

Maybe yes, maybe not. A mystery shrouded in darkness. White helmets have recently even been filmed about chemical attacks. Saleh needs weapons and support from the West, and he can also compose or brag something.

[rocket757]

Both need a bright picture for .... and for what ???
In general, there will be a lot of dregs.

[Avior]

All attempts by the Taliban to portray something civilized, rather than medieval religious fanatics, are crumbling before our eyes.
And how well they started, the almost bloodless capture of Kabul, they rode on the merry-go-rounds, almost like normal people. But the entity still crawls out at every step: ((((
I wonder what Ambassador Zhirnov will say to this, who was praising the new government with might and main after the arrival of the Taliban in Kabul?

[Okolotochny]

I wonder what Ambassador Zhirnov will say to this, who was praising the new government with might and main after the arrival of the Taliban in Kabul?

Well, why change it? In the interview, the ambassador did not "sing laudatory odes" to the Taliban, but described the current situation in the city and around the embassy. ALL!!! And who agreed with the Taliban to take control of Afghanistan? I look forward to your public condemnation of the actions of the United States.

[Avior]

And what odes did he sing, if not laudatory ones?
What order appeared in the city, the girls went to school, the explosions stopped (which the Taliban blew up). And at the same time, while he was giving odes to the Taliban, half of the city was trying to escape from them and the arrests began with the seizure of property.
USA is good too. We agreed with the Taliban on a coalition government - it was necessary to toughly raise the issue of the implementation of agreements on the part of the Taliban, and not watch them seize territories.
And they let it go, the locals were unable to resist the Taliban.

You know, the Kuwaiti girl Naira also talked a lot about the atrocities of the Iraqi army, which she allegedly saw with her own eyes. She spoke under oath.
And then it turned out that this girl was the daughter of the Kuwaiti ambassador to the United States, and all her testimony was composed by the Hill and Knowlton PR agency, commissioned by the Kuwaiti government.
All means are good for those leading the information war.

[Avior]

It is definitely possible to say that the Taliban did not fulfill the terms of the agreement with the Americans on the creation of a coalition government and continue not to fulfill - they are continuing to fight.
The Americans also did not demand the implementation of this agreement.
The number of those who want to flee from the Taliban also does not speak in favor of the fact that the Taliban are fulfilling the agreements. They themselves confirmed the facts of the arrests.
As for Naira's false testimony, any war on both sides is accompanied by propaganda, this is a common thing from time immemorial. Each side proves that their opponents are beasts and savages. You need to be more critical of what you hear from the parties to the conflict.

[Vladimir_3]

as if the Americans were the first to violate it by launching airstrikes against the Taliban in support of the Afghan army. and the army began to improve the bargaining power of the government. this is actually a common tactic for the West. up to have improved. and so any agreements with the West are not worth the paper on which they are written, since the ink will not have time to dry as they will be violated by the "gentlemen".

[Avior]

According to the agreement, the Taliban were supposed not to advance against the government in Kabul, but to agree peacefully.
but you know for the Taliban when they kept their promises to the wrong ...

[Vladimir_3]

but we know for the Americans and their "client" regimes. they never fulfill their promises at all. Why then play these games with the "gentlemen"?

[APASUS]

In my opinion the Americans are playing a new game? They are not the first to fight those they raised and trained!

[anthropologist]

All the same, mattress covers, a good performance was played with "September 11", the script was thought up as an excellent pretext for an "invasion" of Afghan, Afghan women smoked there - "a pipe of peace" and over the course of eleven years they created a professional military den of terrorists. Syria in comparison with Afgan, these are "flowers".

[Borisych]

The Taliban's gut is thin. They won't climb into the gorge.

[FrankyStein]

Masud rocked three districts, but came up with a whiny excuse. It's hard for me to imagine how it worked practically in the mountains. 99% of a hundred no human shield would interfere with shooting them. This is not in the tradition of the East.

[chevere]

The current Masud is not the same as before. This one studied in Britain, and Saleh even in the United States, after which he actively collaborated with the invaders. I doubt they have support outside the family clan. And in it, most likely, just above the baseboard. Therefore, they will compose with tremendous power. And their goal is not "the fight against the Taliban", but getting the dough from the "Sahib fools".

[Petrik66]

That is, in fact, no one was ambushed, 300 Talibs did not accept Islam, and they have already captured three districts.

[fif21]

If this is true, the Taliban are not worthy of being called men. All 40 prisoners of the Taliban should be dressed in a burqa and executed in a manner far from Sharia.
