The Taliban, through an official letter from the group’s 201 Khalid bin Walid Corps, has issued a warning to its members about a potential attack from the National Resistance Front (NRF) during Ramadan.

The letter specifically points to a plot to poison the food of Taliban fighters during Iftar, which is the evening meal which one consumes when fasting ends.

Dated Thursday and endorsed by the coordination commander of the 201 Khalid bin Walid Corps in Nangarhar, this communication was directed to the leadership of the corps' third infantry brigade.

Information shared with Afghanistan International highlights the Taliban's apprehensions regarding the National Resistance Front's strategy to leverage toxic substances against their forces throughout Afghanistan.

Further details from the letter reveal that an NRF member based in Tajikistan has reportedly called upon their comrades to engage in the poisoning scheme targeting the Taliban.

Originating from the Taliban's 201 Corps intelligence division, the directive calls for heightened vigilance within the brigade's ranks, urging commanders to steer clear of food offerings from unverified sources.

Till date, the National Resistance Front has not issued a response to these warnings of the Taliban.
