Exclusive Ground Report: Resistance forces, Taliban face off in Afghanistan's Panjshir valley STAY TUNED TO Indiatoday.in for more

Resistance fighters in Panjshir valley are gearing up to fight the Taliban in what could very well turn out to be the battle for the only province in Afghanistan that could still challenge the Taliban takeover.

With anti-Taliban forces amassing in Afghanistan's Panjshir valley, the Taliban find themselves struggling to quell the resistance led by Ahmad Massoud. Ten days have passed since the Taliban marched on Kabul and forced Afghan president Ashraf Ghani and first vice president Amrullah Saleh to flee the capital city. While Ghani has been granted asylum in the UAE, Amrullah Saleh - who has declared himself caretaker president of Afghanistan - has joined hands with the Panjshir resistance.
