The Taliban fighters arrived at the gates of Kabul and are ordered not to enter the Afghan capital, a Taliban spokesman said on Sunday after the collapse of the Afghan security forces.
“The Islamic Emirate orders all its forces to stand at the gates of Kabul, not to try to enter the city,” Zabihullah Mujahid, a Taliban spokesman, tweeted. Shortly before, Kabul residents pointed out the presence of the Taliban in the city. “There are armed Taliban fighters in our neighborhood, but there is no fighting,” a resident of an eastern suburb of Kabul told AFP.
