Taliban Seizes Control of Afghanistan

After weeks of a sudden attack by the Taliban movement in 2021, it seized control of Afghanistan from a coalition led by the United States. This swift transition of power marked the end of nearly 20 years of U.S. military presence in the country. The Taliban regained the authority it had lost in 2001 following the invasion of international coalition forces. The new authorities have promised to ensure stability and security, but many experts express doubts about this. The international community is watching the situation with great caution, fearing a humanitarian crisis and a rise in terrorism.
