Taliban ban Afghans from evacuating amid massive security sweep

The Taliban have clamped down on Afghans leaving the country as, independently, their forces continue a massive security reach, going house-to- house across the capital on Monday in a “ clearing operation”.

The new trip ban was blazoned late on Sunday by Taliban spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid, who packaged the restrictions as being aimed at precluding difficulty for Afghans abroad.

Evacuations organised by nations ornon-governmental organisations have been banned, while indeed families trying to leave the country by their own means now need “ an reason”, or they will be stopped by immigration.

“ I’ve to say easily that persons who leave the country along with their families and have no reason. we’re precluding them,” Mujahid told a press conference late on Sunday.

Women will also not be suitable to fly abroad unless accompanied by a manly relative — mirroring analogous domestic restrictions introduced last time which bar solo trip between metropolises and municipalities.

Still, they should have a chaperone,” Mujahid said, “ If they ( women) want to travel abroad. “ This is the order of Islamic sharia law.”

The advertisement came the same weekend a hunt for “ kidnappers, stealers and buccaneers” demurred off in Kabul and other Afghan metropolises — a so- called “ clearing operation” separate from the trip measures.

The new trip restrictions will alarm knockouts of thousands of Afghans who have been promised shelter abroad after working with US- led foreign forces or other Western organisations during the Taliban’s 20- time insurrection.

Further than Afghans and binary citizens were vacated up to August 31 when the last US- led colors withdrew, two weeks after the group seized Kabul.

Thousands with analogous links are still in Afghanistan, still, hopeless to leave and fearful they may be targeted by the Taliban as “ collaborators”.

The last functionary evacuation by air was on December 1, although organised road convoys to Pakistan have taken place as lately as last week.

‘ Bad conditions’
Mujahid said the decision to ban departures came because the Taliban had entered reports of thousands of Afghans “ living in veritably bad conditions” abroad.

“ The government has the responsibility to cover the people so this will be stopped until we get the assurance that their lives won’t be risked,” he said, adding that they had noway promised for evacuations to continue indefinitely.

“ Originally we had said that the Americans. could take people whom they had any enterprises about. But this isn’t a nonstop pledge.”

Since the Taliban took over Kabul in August, Afghanistan has plunged into profitable extremity, pushing indeed those without links to the former governance to scramble for an exit.

Thousands of people diurnal try to cross into neighbouring Iran in hunt of work, or in a shot to reach Europe in the stopgap of shelter.

The United States has seized$ 7 billion in Afghan means held abroad — reserving half for philanthropic aid that bypasses the Taliban, and half for a fund to compensate families of those who failed in the September 11, 2001 attacks.


‘ Not against the common people’
Meanwhile, a massive security reach of Kabul continued on Monday with Taliban fighters going house-to- house in hunt of munitions and culprits criticized for a recent torrent of thieveries and hijackings.

The “ clearing operation” has scarified numerous who sweat being targeted because of their association with the former Western- backed governance or US- led foreign forces.

Irate residers have posted vids on social media showing homes they said had been trashed during Taliban quests, but several people told AFP their hassles had been polite and gadarene.

Mujahid said authorities had discovered two abducted victims during the operation so far, and also freed two teenage girls who they plant chained in a basement.

He said light and heavy munitions, snares, radio outfit and drones had been seized, as well as vehicles belonging to the service or government.

Six people suspected of being members of the Islamic State group had been detained, he said, along with nine kidnappers and 53 “ professional stealers”.

“ We want to assure the residers of Kabul that these operations aren’t against the common people,” Mujahid said.”The residers of the megacity should be confident the hunt is going on precisely.”
