The Afghanistan United Front has claimed that it carried out 116 attacks during 100 days of armed operations against the Taliban government, killing 153 Taliban personnel. In a statement, the organisation’s leader, General Sami Sadat, said that 83 Taliban personnel were also wounded in the operations. According to him, the attacks took place in 23 Afghan provinces, with 60 per cent of the operations concentrated in the Taliban’s key strongholds of Kandahar and Helmand. However, these claims have not been independently verified by the Taliban government or other independent sources.
General Sami Sadat said that the organisation had established contacts with national and local influential figures in all 34 provinces of Afghanistan, adding that public support for opposition to the Taliban was growing. According to him, the political commission of the Afghanistan United Front was working to unite various political and national leaders in an effort to establish a new Afghanistan. He said the Taliban government had failed to secure international diplomatic recognition from the United States and European countries. General Sami Sadat also called on Russia to reconsider its position on supporting the Taliban administration.
Outlining the movement’s main objectives, the Afghanistan United Front leader said they included restoring a constitutional system in the country, eliminating terrorist safe havens, and protecting the rights and freedoms of Afghan women. It is worth noting that several armed groups are active against the Taliban government in Afghanistan. However, independently verifying figures relating to their operations and casualties remains a significant challenge.
