Even if they capture the area, what's the big deal. They already control 95% of the country anyway.the same logic could explain why Taliban kept sending those supposed pic of advances in Panjshir despite no internet in the area.
Cud be.. at the end of day Taliban is a forum of convenience for various factions gelled by common hate for USA ... Now that is met... every body would want to be the master... unfortunately, there can be only one there!!!!!!!!
It doesn;t help that they have a militia to feed, it;s a known secret that those fighters are on payroll and get paid monthly.. they want their war spoils..
ground reports that this time they are no different .. just that media management and chest thumping is less ....
yeah I think at this point it is guaranteed that Taliban will take over the whole country physically anyway. The resistance could only do so much with what little they have.Even if they capture the area, what's the big deal. They already control 95% of the country anyway.
IEA took control of the Panjshir capital and a clearance operation has started.
