Taliban patrol in Kandahar, Afghanistan, 15 August 2021. The Taliban have reached the outskirts of Kabul, the capital city of Afghanistan, where the Afghan government reported there have been shots heard, although the insurgents said they will not enter the city by force and are negotiating a peaceful transition of power. After capturing a majority of the country, the Taliban issued a statement asking their fighters to not fight in Kabul and stand by the city’s entrance without attempting to enter by force.
