Taliban militants in Afghanistan have recently made strategic military gains nationwide.

A human rights group says the International Criminal Court (ICC) has received over one and a half million statements of alleged war crimes from Afghan citizens.

The United Nations says more than 10-thousand civilians were killed or injured in bombings and attacks in Afghanistan least year.

The US is not in Afghanistan to defeat the Taliban but because America’s main rivals like China, Russia and Iran are in the neighborhood, Hamid Karzai says.

In an open letter to the “American people,” the Taliban militant group claims it is willing to enter into “peaceful dialog” to end the 17-year war in Afghanistan.

Afghan officials are holding secret talks with the Taliban amid a wave of deadly violence by the group, a report says.

Rand Paul says Trump must reverse his Afghanistan policy and spend the money that is being channeled to the war-ravaged country at home.

Taliban has invited a US senator for “mutual talks” in the Qatari capital Doha, where the so-called Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan has an office.

A Taliban spokesman claimed responsibility for the deadly attack.

Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says it is continuing to closely monitor the activities of the Takfiri Daesh terrorist group even as the terror outfit has been defeated territorially.
