The Militants of the Radical Movement “Taliban” (forbidden in Russia) will receive access to the databases of the Afghan government and will be able to use information from them against the Afghan population. This reports Politico.
The publication writes that thanks to the received data of militants, they learn about all the interactions of Afghan citizens with American military and will be able to initiate violence over the population. It is noted that the government bases have preserved the tax reporting of residents and organizations, as well as information on projects financed from abroad and all citizens associated with them. In this case, the biometric data storage of Afghans will allow the Taliban easily identify people.
The specified bases also contain information about telephone calls. The publication notes that the officials of the US State Department used local cellular networks for calls to those who worked with the United States, including translators, drivers, chefs and other employees. Thus, data on negotiations with the Americans will be a reason for repression against local residents.
Former employee of the US Department of Internal Security, Thomas Warrick expressed confidence that the Taliban uses the data obtained for its own purposes. “There is practically no doubt that they received an extremely valuable supply of information that they can use at leisure,” he concluded.
previously became known that over the past day, the US Air Force (Air Force) was evacuated from Kabul 21.6 thousand people. On August 23, the Taliban movement demanded that the United States completes the evacuation and the withdrawal of its troops until August 31. Otherwise, the militants promised to give the American side military response.
