"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.
