The Taliban said Tuesday the war in Afghanistan had ended and that all their opponents would be forgiven, because they held their first press conference since winning the power of the Western supported government in Kabul.
The war has ended … (leader) has forgiven everyone,” said a spokesman for Zabihullah Mujahid, adding: We are committed to allowing women to work in accordance with Islamic principles.”
The Taliban on Tuesday stated that there was no threat that would be caused to any country from Afghanistan when the group was responsible for the country which was hit by the dispute following a very rapid collapse of its democratic government with the departure of most Western troops.
Islamic Emirates promise all world countries that there is no threat to be caused to any country from Afghanistan,” Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid told reporters at their first press conference in Kabul where he announced the Islamic government would soon be established in Afghanistan.
The Taliban press conference came when the United States and Western allies evacuated the diplomats and civilians the day after the chaos scene at Kabul Airport as an Afghan person desperate to escape from the Taliban who was filled with the terminal.
Britain on Tuesday announced a re -settlement scheme for Afghan people to escape the Taliban after they returned to power, offering 5,000 initial places in the first year, up to 20,000 in the long run.
The announcement appeared ahead of the extraordinary parliamentary session on Wednesday, where parliamentary members who were remembered from the holidays will discuss the collapse of the Afghan government, immediately after the withdrawal of Western forces.
Around 900 British troops have been sent back to the capital of Afghanistan to help repatriate thousands of British citizens, including embassy staff, after the return of the Islamists.
London said priority would be given to those who were the most risky, including Afghan women, children and others who were forced to escape or face threats and persecution from hardliners, offering them the opportunity to remain in England without time limits.
This residential scheme will be stored under further review for the coming years, with a total of 20,000 in the long run,” Home Office said in a statement.
The US Air Force said on Tuesday that they were investigating the situation around the remnants of humans found in the wheel wells of one of their C-17 who flew out of the Kabul in the midst of the chaos of the Taliban who took over the city.
In a statement, the Air Force said that the plane landed at Kabul Airport on Monday and was surrounded by hundreds of Afghan civilians.
Faced with a fast-deteriorating security situation around the plane, the C-17 crew decided to leave the airport as quickly as possible,” the statement said.
The White House admitted Tuesday that the Taliban had collected a large amount of US military equipment after winning the control of Afghanistan after two decades of war with American troops.
Pictures and videos have shown the Taliban with firearms and vehicles used or provided by Pentagon forces to the Afghan National Security forces, as well as Hawk UH-60 Black Hawk Helicopters and other equipment at Kandahar Airport.
We do not have a complete picture, of course, where every article defense material has gone. But of course, quite a lot of it has fallen into the hands of the Taliban,” said National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan White House.
