Brussels. May 10. INTERFAX-The Taliban (banned in Russia) has announced that it will stop fighting in Afghanistan for three days in connection with the Eid al-Fitr (Eid al-Fitr) holiday, celebrated in honor of the end of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, Western media reports.

According to media reports, the command of the "Taliban" on Monday gave the order to stop offensive operations in the country for three days.

In response, the Chairman of the Supreme Council for National Reconciliation of Afghanistan, Abdullah Abdullah, pointed to the need for a permanent ceasefire in the country.

"We believe that the best solution to bring the country out of the crisis is to remove obstacles to peace talks, declare a long-term ceasefire and end the battles forever," the media quoted excerpts from his statement.

The media also recall that last year the Taliban also announced a three-day truce over Eid al-Fitr.

A week ago, the Taliban launched an offensive near the administrative center of Helmand-the city of Lashkar Gah. The militants first managed to push the military, then they launched a counterattack, taking advantage, in particular, of air support.
