  • Afghanistan: Extremism & Terrorism
    Afghanistan: Extremism & Terrorism On September 7, 2021, the Taliban officially announced the appointments within its caretaker government. At the helm of the movement is Haibatullah Akhundzada, who will serve as supreme leader. Mullah Muhammad Hassan was named the acting prime minister, with Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar and Mawlawi Abdul Salam Hanafi named deputy prime ministers. The top security post was given to Sirajuddin Haqqani, who will serve as acting minister of the interior, a role in which he will have extensive authority over policing and legal matters. Mawlawi Mohammad Yaqoob, who is the oldest son of Taliban founder Mullah Muhammad Omar, is named the acting defense minister. The government is exclusively male, with many positions filled with veterans from their hardline movement in the early nineties. (Sources: New York Times, Associated Press) The appointments came a month after the Taliban began its offensive against major Afghan cities on August 6, 2021. By August 16, the Taliban laid siege to the presidential palace and took complete control of Kabul, declaring the war in Afghanistan had ended. The last U.S. troops flew out of Kabul on August 30, ending a 20-year war that took the lives of 2,500 American troops and 240,000 Afghans and cost about $2 trillion. By the evening of August 30, 123,000 people were evacuated from Kabul. Before departing, U.S. troops destroyed more than 70 aircraft, dozens of armored vehicles, and disabled air defenses that were used to counteract jihadist attacks in the country. The final withdrawal of U.S. troops was not a celebration of a more secure Afghanistan, but marked the beginning of a new Taliban regime.

  • Chronology of Events in Afghanistan, October 2002*
    Chronology of Events in Afghanistan, October 2002* October 2 Bamiyan province worried by Taliban resurgence. (Reuters) Mohammad Rahim Ali Yar, the head of Bamiyan province, said that a force of 400- 500 Taliban fighters was protected by troops supposedly loyal to the government in Kabul. He said the fighters had taken control of the district of Kahmard about 60 km north of Bamiyan town in alliance with a smaller government force of 150 men led by Tajik commander Rais Rahmatullah. "At the moment the situation in Kahmard is very bad, the schools are closed, the district administration is being destroyed. We don't want this situation to extend beyond Kahmard." he said. Locals said this Taliban force was led by Tajiks who had played a leading role in the Pashtun-dominated movement. With the Taliban overthrown, they had formed a natural alliance with a pro- government Tajik force looking to bolster its strength in a region dominated by Hazaras. Ali Yar said the Taliban force was led by Maullawee Mohammad Islam, former Tajik governor of Bamiyan. Several locals from Kahmard reported that they were among 159 families, or around 1,500 people, who had fled Taliban control of the district in the past two months. Members of the families in Bamiyan said eight people, mostly civilians, had been killed in clashes between rival fighters in the past two months. Taliban forces reportedly arrested nine people, including five teachers, accused of “teaching heresy” and supporting U.S. forces. Afghan clerics accused of burning girls' school in Mazar-i Sharif. (Reuters) Four religious leaders in northern Afghanistan were arrested and accused of having burned down a girls' school.
