Kabul. November 10th. INTERFAX - A group of armed men in Laghman province in eastern Afghanistan announced the beginning of the fight against the Taliban movement (a terrorist organization banned in Russia).
In a video message in support of the National Resistance Front (FTS), published on Wednesday in the Afghan segment of social networks, it is said that the armed group is in support of the FTS led by Ahmad Masood.
"Mujahideen and freedom fighters have launched guerrilla actions and battles in Laghman province to ensure justice in the country and put an end to the occupation," the appeal says.
The day before, an armed group in Kabul province announced its support for the Federal Tax Service.
Against the background of the withdrawal of US and NATO troops from Afghanistan in August, Taliban militants seized almost all provinces of the country almost without a fight. On August 15, the radicals also captured Kabul, the capital of the country, without clashes, after which President Ashraf Ghani and members of his cabinet fled from it.
After that, for more than two weeks, the Taliban, bearing heavy losses, tried to storm the only unconquered province - Panjshir. Finally, on September 6, the Taliban announced the capture of the valley. However, representatives of the anti-Taliban National Resistance Front claim that the radicals, with the help of Pakistani aviation, managed to seize only the main gorge of Panjshir, all 23 other gorges in the region are under the control of the Front.
