Exiled Taliban chief returns to Afghanistan to take charge after 10-year exile
The Daily Mirror says: The militant group that stormed Kabul at the weekend said they wanted peaceful relations with other countries and would respect the rights of women within the framework of Islamic law
A Taliban leader and co-founder was seen returning to Afghanistan after more than 10 years in a triumphalist video posted on social media.
The militant group that stormed Kabul at the weekend said they wanted peaceful relations with other countries and would respect the rights of women within the framework of Islamic law.
The announcement, short on details but claiming a softer line than during their rule 20 years ago, came as frantic evacuation efforts continued out of Kabul.
In footage posted online one of the Taliban’s co-founders was seen being given a hero’s welcome in Kandahar as locals cheered his motorcade.
