Afghanistan: Taliban carrying out door-to-door manhunt, report says - superadmin - 08-20-2021 The Taliban have stepped up their search for people who worked for Nato forces or the previous Afghan government, a UN document has warned. It said the militants have been going door-to-door to find targets and threatening their family members. The hardline Islamist group has tried to reassure Afghans since seizing power in a lightning offensive, promising there would be "no revenge". But there are fears the Taliban have changed little since the brutal 1990s. The warning the group were targeting "collaborators" came in a confidential document by the RHIPTO Norwegian Center for Global Analyses, which provides intelligence to the UN. "There are a high number of individuals that are currently being targeted by the Taliban and the threat is crystal clear," Christian Nellemann, who heads the group behind the report, told the BBC. - More -
