No News Even After 11 Days of Detention of Rights Activist Narges Sadat, Says Family

It has been three days since the Taliban have closed the Torkham border crossing.

According to officials, after the closure of the border and gun fight between the Taliban and Pakistan border forces, the two sides have been in talks to reopen the border.

Sarhadi said, "Long queues of heavy trucks have formed on both sides of the border."

Taliban officials said that Pakistan has not fulfilled its commitments regarding the smooth transit of Afghan travellers, and patients seeking treatment in the country.

The Pakistani government has not publicly commented on the matter.

The Taliban have stressed that these new districts have been formed to provide better government services to remote and underserved areas.

The Taliban's Prime Minister office has ordered all ministries to activate their offices in these districts to provide better services to the people.

No further details about the names and locations of these districts have been provided by the Taliban.

Previously, Afghanistan had 364 districts in 34 provinces.

The Taliban have said that the cash package has been handed over to a commercial bank in Kabul.

While the Iranian rial and Pakistani rupee have lost value in recent days, the value of the Afghani currency has remained stable in the market. Observers believe that one of the main reasons for the stable value of Afghani is the cash packages being delivered as humanitarian aid to Afghanistan.

In more than one and a half years since the takeover of Afghanistan by the Taliban, over 1.8 billion dollars of cash packages have been delivered to Kabul on a weekly basis.

Sending millions of dollars of "humanitarian" aid to Afghanistan under the control of the Taliban has been met with support and criticisms of many Afghans.

Critics believe that the Taliban benefit from international humanitarian aid. Earlier, Ahmad Massoud, leader of the National Resistance Front, had said that the Taliban regime would fall if the weekly cash delivery to Afghanistan had been cut off.

However, the United Nations has said it is necessary to save millions of needy people in Afghanistan through the humanitarian aid.

According to these sources, Rahmani has been transferred to an unknown location and his fate is not clear yet.

Ismail Rahmani received a master's degree in Shariah studies from Kabul University and has been a religious scholar.

Supporters and some Pashto writers have expressed concern about Rahmani's arrest and asked the Taliban to release him immediately.

Last week, the Taliban arrested social media influencers Sadullah Didan, also known as Haji Kaka, in Nangarhar province and Imran Ahmadzai in the capital city, Kabul.

On Sunday, the Taliban intelligence agency released a video clip of the forced confessions of these two Afghans, who admitted to anti-Taliban activities on their social media pages that have not been posted.

The group has released the other arrested individuals with the mediation of local elders, but they have kept Moradi imprisoned.

The sources said that Moradi is being tortured during the Taliban detention.

It has been said that these people had been arrested by the Taliban after a flag of the National Resistance Front (NRF) had been hoisted in Dare Zindan village of Samangan Province.

The Taliban has accused Moradi of collaborating with the NRF forces. However, Moradi's relatives have said that Moradi has no affiliation with NRF forces and had not been aware of the people who hoisted the flag in Dare Zindan village.
