Will the Taliban take over Central Asia in April? The US enemies in Moscow and Tegheran were in vain rejoicing at the US withdrawal from Afghanistan. The Russians and Iranians shot themselves in the foot. Disturbing news comes from Central Asia. According to sources (https://bit.ly/3uJKY66) familiar with the situation, over the past few days, a number of Taliban field commanders in the Afghan province of Badakhshan have been discussing the possibility of invading neighboring Tajikistan, writes Andrey Serenko, head expert of the Center for the Study of Modern Afghanistan. According to these Taliban commanders, favorable conditions for this will arise after the failure of Russia's war in Ukraine. Taliban commanders are confident that the failure of the Russian operation in Ukraine will not only demoralize Moscow, but also make it unlikely to intervene in new armed conflicts that will then arise in other parts of the post-Soviet space. In other words, according to the Taliban, if there is an invasion of a significant group of militants in Tajikistan, Russia is unlikely to be able to support the official Dushanbe. The Badakhshan Taliban commanders also believe that the Russians could be urge not to interfere in the conflict. 10,000 fighters with the latest captured American weapons will appear in northern Afghanistan in April. These areas border on Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, according to the media (https://bit.ly/3wIQlVH). The Taliban are sending additional forces to the northern and northeastern provinces of Afghanistan. Kari Fasihuddin Fitrat, Chief of Staff of the Taliban Armed Forces, wrote about this on Twitter. It is noted that the group will have the most modern technology of NATO countries. Aviation will soon support it, Fitrat added. He explained that these troops will be ready to respond to any challenges. The head of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service confirmed that the Taliban will launch an offensive in April (https://bit.ly/3qMF3M9).
