Kandthar: His surrender seems to occur as fast as the Taliban can travel.
In the past few days, Afghan security forces had fainted in several cities under pressure from the increase in Taliban.
Offensif has produced mass delivery, helicopters captured and millions of dollars provided by the US.
This explosion occurred even though we had poured more than $ 83 billion in weapons, equipment and training to the country’s security forces for two decades.
It starts with individual posts in rural areas where hunger and ammunition soldiers are released surrounded by the Taliban fighters and promises a safe part if they give up and leave their equipment.
When posting collapses, complaints the same: there is no air support or they run out of stock and food.
But even before that, the systemic weakness of Afghan security forces – which on numbered paper were around 300,000 people, but in the past few days there were about one-sixth of it, according to US officials – clearly.
This deficiency can be traced to many problems that emerge from western pressure to build a fully modern military with all the complexity of logistics and supply, and which has been proven to be unsustainable without the US and its NATO allies.
The army and the police have expressed Afghan leadership revenge.
Officials close their eyes against what happened to know well that the number of real workers of Afghan forces was far lower than what was in the book, leaning by corruption.
In an interview after the interview, the army and police officers described the moment of despair and feeling abandoned.
At one front line in Kandahar, the inability of Afghan security forces to fend off the Taliban down to potatoes.
After weeks of fighting, one full box of muddy potatoes should pass as a daily ration unit.
“This fries will not hold this front line!” An officer shouted.
On Thursday, the line collapsed, and Kandahar was in the Taliban control on Friday.
