India Urges Its Nationals To Leave Afghanistan On "Exceptional Flight" Today

The Taliban said Monday they had turned their sights on Mazar-I-Sharif. 

New Delhi: India has requested that its nationals leave Afghanistan today on a "exceptional flight" from Mazar-I-Sharif - the country's fourth biggest city - in the midst of extraordinary battling with the Taliban. 

The Taliban said Monday they had turned their sights on Mazar-I-Sharif. 

A representative of the radicals declared via online media that they had dispatched a four-pronged assault on the city. They have effectively caught Sheberghan to its west and Kunduz and Taloqan in the east. 

Mazar-I-Sharif is the biggest city in the north and thought about a key part to the public authority's power over the space. 

Afghanistan's long-running clash has raised drastically since May, when the US-drove military alliance started the pullout of its powers - the activity is set to be finished before the month's end. 

As the Taliban have assumed responsibility for a few areas the nation over, US knowledge appraisals have recommended the country's' non military personnel government could tumble to the dread gathering not long after US powers pulling out.
