In a video released Thursday the Anti-Taliban resistance outlined Pakistan’s role in the Afghani’s struggle to hang on to the Panjshir Valley. The Afghanistan Anti-Taliban fighters are claiming that they have been attacked by both the Taliban and the Pakistani army in large numbers.
They are disputing what they claim is the Taliban’s propaganda. And they are feeling abandoned by the rest of the world.
Painful. Afghan journalists from @Etilaatroz, Nemat Naqdi & Taqi Daryabi, display wounds sustained from Taliban torture & beating while in custody after they were arrested for reporting on a women’s rally in #Kabul, #Afghanistan.#JournalismIsNotACrime https://t.co/jt631nRB69 pic.twitter.com/CcIuCy6GVw

Taliban-Pakistan army invade Afghanistan
In the video key commanders including Ahmad Massoud, Saleh Registani, Hamid Saifi, Khalid Amiri, and Munib Amiri are seen standing together. They claim that the struggle in Panjshir with the Taliban does not mean the end of the war. And they appealed directly to the people of Afghanistan to join them in the ongoing fight against their invaders.
Women in Afghanistan have been continuously leading protests against the Taliban. Amid the Taliban-led crackdowns and violence, women are pushing back and demanding their freedom. Videos of women protesting the Taliban have also been released. Some of them show women and reporters being beaten. Despite the risks, these protests are growing, as the Taliban carries out its reign of terror in Afghanistan.
