The territory of Tajikistan was allowed more than 300 Afghan military personnel, forced to retreat after fighting with the Radical Movement “Taliban” (a terrorist organization prohibited in Russia). This is reported on the website of the National Information Agency Tajikistan “Howar” with reference to the statement of the press center of the border troops of the State Committee for the National Security of the Republic.
“Over 300 military personnel of the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan after fierce resistance, in order to preserve the personnel crossed the state border of the Republic of Tajikistan through the protected area,” the report says. It is noted that the border guards of Tajikistan allowed the Afghan military to move to the territory through the protected area between the 5th border shop “Ostycolol” and the 6th border shop “Sarigor”, “guided by the principles of humanism and good neighborliness.”
The statement also emphasizes that the situation on the border between the two countries is under full control of the border guards. “
Earlier it was reported that Washington finishes the conclusion of troops from Afghanistan ahead of time due to increased clashes with the militants of the Taliban radical movement. Prior to this, the United States asked Tajikistan, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan to temporarily take about nine thousand Afghans who helped the Americans during their campaign.
The official conclusion of US troops and the North Atlantic Alliance countries from the Afghan territories began on May 1. US President Joe Biden stated that the American army completely opens Afghanistan by September 11. In his opinion, the military forces of other countries can neither create nor support the local government.
