Taliban claims complete control of last Afghan province of Panjshir

The Taliban claimed to have taken complete control of Panjshir province, the last area in Afghanistan being held by resistance forces. The militant group's spokesman, Zabihullah Mujahid made the claim on September 6, 2021. But on the same day, the leader of the anti-Taliban National Resistance Front denied Panjshir had fallen to the Taliban. The area, including the Panjshir Valley, is north of the capital Kabul, and has been the only region to resist the Taliban overthrew the Afghan government ahead of the withdrawal of US-led occupation forces from the country.
