A month and a half after the announcement of the end of the war in Afghanistan, made by the radical Taliban movement that came to power in Kabul, resistance to their regime flared up again.
The Afghan National Resistance Front, headed by Ahmad Masud, the son of the dead leader of the anti-Taliban coalition Ahmad Shah Masud, announced the beginning of an armed struggle against the militants of the radical Islamic movement "Taliban" in the province of Kapisa.
In the video message of the front, it is said that the resistance fighters, along with Panjsher and Andarab, will wage a guerrilla war against the Taliban in the territory of the Kapisa province.
At the moment, in the north-eastern province of Baghlan, there are fierce battles between the Taliban and the detachments of the front. A video of a column of militants moving into the Andarab Valley in this province has gone viral on social media.
The north-eastern province of Baghlan borders on the south-east with the province of Panjsher, which remained the last bastion of armed resistance to the Taliban after the fall of Kabul.
The front claims that it currently controls about 60 percent of the territory of Panjsher province, as well as the city of Andarab in Baghlan province.
These provinces are inhabited by Tajiks and other ethnic minorities, such as Hazaras and Uzbeks. At the same time, the Pashtuns, the largest Afghan nation on which the Taliban rely, are less than 20% in this area.
