Khaama: Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction, known as SIGAR, has written in a new report that anti-Taliban groups do not have foreign support and strong leadership. However, SIGAR stated that resistance groups have taken responsibility for 43 attacks against the Taliban in the past three months. The report by the United States Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction states that Afghan people’s fatigue from war and retaliatory actions by the Taliban are two other major reasons for the lack of escalation in anti-Taliban attacks. It also quoted the UN report stating that the Afghan Freedom Front continued its guerrilla attacks in cities and villages. Additionally, it was quoted that the National Resistance Front of Afghanistan, led by Ahmad Massoud, did not launch any attacks in Panjshir, its traditional base. A resident of Panjshir told SIGAR that due to pressures imposed by the Taliban on the people of Panjshir, the resistance front is currently not operating in this province.
