[DW] Pak citizen Abdul Rasheed died in Afghanistan's Nangarhar province earlier this month. Hundreds of people attended the 22-year-old's funeral near Peshawar and chanted pro-Taliban ...mindless ferocity in a turban...slogans. Videos of Pak citizens holding Taliban flags and chanting Islamist slogans at rallies to show support for the Afghan holy warriors have been circulating on social media. This comes amid rapid Taliban advances in Afghanistan ahead of the complete withdrawal of US troops by September. |
