Local sources informed Afghanistan International that the Taliban, on Wednesday, disrupted telecommunication services in the provinces of Kandahar, Ghazni, Herat, and Mazar-e-Sharif on the day of Eid al-Fitr.

As of yet, the Taliban has not commented in this regard, but recent reports indicate that the group has intensified security measures to prevent potential untoward incidents.

Earlier, credible sources provided videos to Afghanistan International showing the Taliban erecting security barriers around the Eidgah Mosque in Kandahar.

There are concerns within the Taliban about potential threats to their leader, Hibatullah Akhundzada, from ISIS during Eid prayers.

The Taliban has allocated 17 mosques for Eid prayers.

Meanwhile, Mullah Shirin, the Taliban governor in Kandahar, announced the deployment of army, intelligence, special forces, and additional units to ensure security across the city and its districts.

The recent suicide bombing in Kandahar, claimed by ISIS, has heightened fears of further attacks by the group. Despite the Taliban's claims of suppressing ISIS, recent attacks in Moscow and international alerts regarding the growing threats from ISIS Khorasan have placed the Taliban on high alert.
