CIA students of the Special Forces of Afghanistan, who collaborated with the Americans during evacuation from Kabul, began to receive threats from the representatives of the Taliban movement (prohibited in Russia). It is reported by Washington POST with reference to American officials.
According to a high-ranking official, the Afghans trained by the CIA helped with a evacuation of about 2,000 US citizens, as well as 5,500 embassy staff, third-party citizens and Afghanistan, which could face the taliban massacre. The militants have established the identities of some members of these groups and began to send messages with threats to kill them together with families.
At the same time, during the onset of militants, a significant part of these forces was stationed in the south of the country, but headed for Kabul to help in evacuation. Some had to get to the capital “fight,” the official said.
Sources of publication noted that without the help of such trained fighters, the US evacuation from Afghanistan would have passed with even more difficulties. However, it is not specified how many of these Afghans remained in the country.
May 1 began the official conclusion of US troops and the North Atlantic Alliance countries from the Afghan territories. After that, the situation in the country was aggravated, the forces of the Taliban were activated (prohibited in Russia). On August 15, the militants announced the establishment of control throughout Afghanistan. On August 31, the entire foreign contingent left the republic.
