The Taliban have reportedly taken control of the presidential palace in Kabul on Sunday and was expected to announce the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan after President Ashraf Ghani fled the capital.
The Taliban moved into Kabul on Sunday after a lightning-fast military operation allowed the insurgents to capture most of Afghanistan over the past week and entered into talks with government officials at the presidential palace.
Earlier Sunday, Taliban insurgents said they would not attack the city until the transfer of power was worked out. “Taliban fighters are to be on standby on all entrances of Kabul until a peaceful and satisfactory transfer of power is agreed,” Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid.
