Hours after Taliban claimed victory in Panjshir, the leader of National Resistance Front of Afghanistan, Ahmad Massoud, called on Afghanistan to rally against the Islamist group across the country. In his first audio message after the Taliban's declaration of victory, Massoud said that the resistance forces are still fighting against the Taliban in Panjshir and that the group's claim of victory is far from true. He declared a national uprising against the Taliban and asked Afghans to resist Taliban by whatever means they could. He also asked Taliban fighters to repent and join the resistance. Ahmad Massoud has asked the international community to aid the Afghan resistance forces against Taliban. He said despite Taliban's strong military power, the resistance will continue. Watch this video for Massoud's full speech.
