Afghanistan's acting President Amrullah Saleh has highlighted that the Taliban are halting the supply of food and fuel to the Andarb valley in the northern Baghlan province, adding the situation there is dreadful. He also accused the Taliban of violating human rights in the region.
Saleh's statement comes when fighters of the extremist's group and the resistance forces are indulging in clashes.
"Talibs aren't allowing food and fuel to get into Andarab valley. The humanitarian situation is dire. Thousands of women and children have fled to the mountains. Since the last two days, Talibs abduct children and elderly and use them as shields to move around or do house search," Saleh on late Monday tweeted.
Earlier, Saleh has stated that the Taliban should avoid penetrating Panjshir.
"Talibs have massed forces near the entrance of Panjshir a day after they got trapped in ambush zones of neighbouring Andarab valley and hardly went out in one piece. Meanwhile, the Salang highway is closed by the forces of the Resistance. 'There are terrains to be avoided'. See you," Saleh tweeted.
The members of the G7 nations have decided to meet later on Tuesday to have a discourse on the situation of Afghanistan and also if an extension of the troop's withdrawal deadline to August 31 is needed, for a vacation of several people trying to flee the Taliban's capture.
The leaders of the United States, UK, Italy, France, Germany, Canada and Japan will also discuss whether the Taliban government should be recognised or not.
The Taliban, however, has warned against extending the withdrawal of the military troops slated for August 31.
