Taliban 'carrying out highly organised manhunt'
The Taliban are carrying out a highly-organised door-to-door hunt for people on their wanted list, says the head of the group providing intelligence to the UN.

"What we have seen is that the Taliban, in advance of moving into all major cities in Afghanistan, not just Kabul, is that they have a more advanced intelligence system," Christian Nellemann, of the Norwegian Centre for Global Analyses, told the BBC.

"They have lists of individuals and even within the very first hours of moving into Kabul they began a search of former government employees - especially in intelligence services and the special forces units."

He said that, not only could this lead to mass executions, but also a "mass revealing of our methods and the intelligence networks that the West has provided. So this could undermine severely a number of our Western intelligence services."

As we reported earlier, the Norwegian Centre for Global Analyses’ report to the UN also said the Taliban are recruiting new informer networks to collaborate with their regime.

If the Taliban already have lists of Intelligence Service officials and Special Forces members in "all the major cities...., not just Kabul" then i'd say that ship has already sailed.

I'm wondering what the gender of those surveyed was... I'm thinking plenty of women would have responded differently.

Due to Islam's cultural thing I guess they have only asked male person above 18 years of age.

You almost wonder if our government and military brass botched this ending so badly on purpose so that we'd have to go back, and do it all over again. It's not like any of them will be held accountable. $$$

Be prepared for strikes in Afghanistan. It will be so ordinary that no news channel will care to make it breaking news maybe as a short issue before weather.

Never going to happen. The Taliban will let the thousands of Americans out simply because they are in a good position and won't risk being bombed over it.

US says its evacuation plans from Kabul airport are being stepped up after criticism for being too slow.

Nine men from Hazara minority were tortured and murdered by the Taliban - Amnesty International.

UK Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab under pressure over accusations of putting Afghan interpreters' lives at risk.

Taliban shot dead relative of one of its journalists, says German broadcaster Deutsche Welle.

A German national has been shot while trying to get to Kabul airport. According to a German government spokeswoman, the civilian is to be flown out soon: "he is being given medical care and there is no risk to his life".

President Joe Biden is to give an update later on Friday on the US evacuation operation in Afghanistan, the White House has said.

As long as they're leaving by aircraft i have hope that you are right but if this ends with the last ones having to walk or drive out it could be reminiscent of the 1842 British withdrawal from Kabul.

Afghanistan the end dont think so WWII didnt end after the battle of El Alamien this isn't the end it isn't even the begining of the end but it is perhaps the end of the begining Winston Churchill Quote.

How long will it be before Afghanistan the festering Sore needs lancing once again and the US Nato dip thier feet in muddy waters again what will we call that Operation The Great Crusade.

The US were hoping the Taliban wouldnt take over Afganistan for at least 90 days talk about 3 little pigs and the house of straw childrens story
the Afgan people have been thrown under a bus big time.
Will all the western Nationalities get out the taliban are holding all the aces this could turn out very nasty indeed.

Without Iran stepping up there was no chance for the government to hold out and I still think this will settle out okay if the west just shuts up and leaves.
