A number of residents from the Abdullah Khal Valley in the Panjashir province say that the Taliban have increased traffic restrictions and are checking and pressuring residents after the explosion of a military vehicle belonging to this group in the area. These residents told Afghanistan International on Sunday, March 3, that after the 20 Mayz explosion in the Chaharbaji Hajja area, the officials of the Taliban security unit changed and the new forces imposed more restrictions on people's lives. A local resident said that people are afraid to leave the house for fear of interrogation and pressure. According to him, the Taliban forces are even looking for those who come and go to morning and evening prayers. This resident added that the local elders complained to the Taliban authorities about what they called the harassment and beating of the residents, but the complaints had no results.
