After the Taliban took over Kabul, resistance forces in the non-Taliban * province of Panjshir were led by the son of the legendary commander, Ahmad Masud (pictured).

Opponents of the Taliban * movement have asked the United States and Western countries to provide them with weapons and equipment to fight the Taliban.

“We need more weapons, more ammo and more equipment. America and its democratic allies are not just waging a common fight against terrorism with the Afghans. We have a long history of shared ideals and struggles. There is still much you can do to help the cause of freedom. You are our only remaining hope, - quotes the text of Masoud's statement to The Washington Post.

According to him, the detachment has a stock of weapons and ammunition, but it is not enough. Massoud said that if the Taliban warlords launch an offensive, they will face determined resistance.

“And yet we know that our armed forces and logistics will not be enough. They will quickly deplete if our friends in the west do not find a way to provide for us without delay, Masood wrote.

On August 15, the Taliban captured Kabul. The Afghan President fled from the camp. He is now in the UAE.
