UN Security Council: Taliban Leadership Cannot Resist Spread of ISIS in Afghanistan The international organization accused representatives of the radical Taliban movement in power in Afghanistan of inability to resist the proliferation of Islamic State militants ( IS, a terrorist organization banned in Russia ) in the country. Her words are quoted by TASS.
Lyons noted that earlier IS terrorists were in only a few provinces, but now they are being recorded throughout the country. “Now, it seems that they are represented in almost all provinces and their activity is growing,” she said.
Earlier, Ali Maisama Nazari, head of the foreign relations department of the Afghan National Resistance Front (FNSA) rebel movement, said that The Taliban maintain close contact with IS terrorists and provide support to terrorist groups. He is confident that the killings of political activists, as well as terrorist attacks throughout Afghanistan, are committed by the hands of the Taliban disguised as IS or Al-Qaeda militants.
In October, Andrei Serenko, an expert at the Center for the Study of Modern Afghanistan, said that the country in fact, there is no fight against terrorists. He said that Islamic State and Al-Qaeda ( a terrorist organization banned in Russia ) are openly operating in many provinces of the country
