Former Afghan army officer cites as rumors claims that Masud's militia commanders fled to Tajikistan

14

Afghan sources of information published materials referring to the Taliban (* a terrorist group banned in the Russian Federation), which states that the command of the so-called Front of the Afghan National Resistance, including Massoud himself and a field commander named Registani, left Afghanistan. The reports say that representatives of the commanders of the militia of Ahmad Masud are no longer in Panjshir, but, having left it, fled to Tajikistan. At the same time, no data is provided on what type of transport they could use to cross the Afghan-Tajik border, given that all checkpoints on the Afghan side are under the control of the Taliban *.

A former Afghan army officer who had previously joined the militia of Ahmad Zia Masud in the Panjshir Valley commented on reports from individual Afghan resources referring to statements by the Taliban *. The officer calls himself Sarfaraz and actually acts as the head of the FANR press service.



According to a former Afghan officer, claims that senior commanders of the Afghan National Resistance Front (Masud's troops) have moved from Panjshir to Tajikistan are untrue. Sarfaraz claims that "military planning and preparation of the militia for the winter continues."

Former Afghan officer:

The fact that our commanders have moved to Tajikistan are rumors deliberately spread by the Taliban *. By doing this, they want to sow distrust in our command. We are in Panjshir.

At the same time, other Afghan sources indicate that Massoud's calls to Western countries to provide financial and military-technical assistance have remained unanswered (at the moment). Without such assistance, it will be almost impossible to fight in the mountains in the winter against superior enemy forces, even if FANR loses key targets, including the Salang Pass.

Experts note that without possession of the Salang Pass, Masud's militia will, at best, be forced to postpone operations against the Taliban until spring, at worst, it will simply begin to "dissolve" with an unwillingness to while away the winter in mountain caves without supplies and a clear perspective.

      He and Saleh fled on the first day of the Taliban's offensive against Panjshir, traditionally leaving their people behind. In fact, in Kabul, there was a fireworks display on this occasion, apparently against the opposition. We flew by helicopters to Tajikistan. Saleh even confessed, but promised to return, and Masudik made a staging against the background of the Tajik power line. wassat Even if there are still resistance, which is hard to believe. Although there are those with whom the tower roam. Winter will finally reconcile them. By day a farmer, and by night a bandit, only for internationalists it is unpleasant, but for the Taliban a corpse during the day, and at night ... also a corpse wassat

    The Taliban will not take Panjshir, the West is spreading stuff about the Taliban's victories for a reason - to make invincible warriors out of students with beards, allegedly that's why NATO did it so fluidly. The trouble with our media now is that there is no information from the river valley, there are no our correspondents, only Taliban tales. Well, straight bearded Goebbels. No wonder America gave them the means of communication, there was intent.
    I am waiting for the moment when the tribal leaders will be offended and take the Taliban seriously. This will not be long in coming.

      Talibam Panjshir not to take

      You must have missed something ...? Panjshir taken. The Taliban control all the settlements in the valley. There is no control, only over the peaks and the throat ... The Masud militia went to the height, where there is no food, no water (in theory, there is snow, ice), no fuel (and this is the most important thing) ...
      Have you ever been to the highlands? At least 3500 ... Can you imagine what it is?

      And this "serious" will last forever. The mattresses did not leave mountains of weapons for China or Russia to build power plants and roads and calmly begin to develop the wealth of Afgan. And so any civil development is blocked by crowds of armed subjects, and do not care what values ​​they defend.

      Borisych, Masudik posted so many Twitter victories to us about a heap of prisoners, a heap of those who were killed, though without photo-video, but nothing. And the Taliban entered, showed a video where the detachment lies exactly in a row, where the prisoners were taken out by trucks standing in the butt. They showed Salang, Masud's mausoleum, Masudika's hacienda, the helicopter landing site from which MasudikoSalehi fled, showed hundreds of pieces of artillery and armored vehicles. Duc and Twitter Masudika recognizes the capture of Pandsher, unless there is a squeak (which is what the article is about) that we are not surrendering and are preparing for land wassat

    And they could run away (not the people who would stand to death), and the Taliban could start up misinformation. We can only guess. But it seems that in August there was about an air "bridge" from Panjshir to Tajikistan at VO.

    Former Afghan officer:

    If an officer continues armed resistance to the enemies of the country, why is he a former one? He is at least a patriot and partisan ... hi
