in Afghanistan on Sunday said it seized Taluqan, the capital city of northern Takhar province next to Tajikistan.The group’s front man Zabihullah Mujahed shared several pictures and videos of the Lions of Islam hoisting the Taliban flag at the main square in Taluqan, a large and important city, freeing inmates from the prison and entering the provincial administration compound.
"Today, late (in the evening) the center of Takhar province (Taluqan) with all relevant offices (governor’s office, police headquarters, intelligence center, prison and all government installations) are won," he said in a statement that also instructed fighters not to enter peoples’ homes or make arrests.
Authorities confirmed assaults and said resistance is underway, while there was no immediate confirmation or rejection from the Afghan government.
Earlier, the advancing Taliban marched on at least three more scenic provincial capitals in northern Afghanistan a day after capturing Sheberghan, the capital of Jawzjan province.
