Guterres also urged all Afghan parties, especially the Taliban* movement to “respect and protect international humanitarian law and the rights and freedoms of all persons”.

The militants in Afghanistan boosted their presence after the beginning of the US troop withdrawal from the country. After seizing multiple Afghan cities and taking control over the country’s border, the Taliban captured the Afghan capital of Kabul on Sunday. President Ashraf Ghani resigned and left the country, while a new transitional government was formed.
