Sir Ed Davey accused Tories of letting down Afghans who supported British forces and protecting its ministers. It comes as a super-injunction blocking reporting about the âhorrificâ leak of data was lifted. The Ministry of Defence only became aware of the breach when excerpts from the dataset were posted anonymously on a Facebook group in August 2023, and a super-injunction was granted at the High Court in an attempt to prevent the Taliban from finding out about the leak.

In a historic and controversial move, Russia has become the first nation to officially recognise the Taliban government in Afghanistan. The announcement was met with cautious optimism on the streets of Kabul, where many Afghans are now urging neighboring powers like Iran, Pakistan, and India to âchoose friendshipâ over continued conflict. Locals say the recognition brings hope for stability, economic revival, and an end to international isolation. âWar brings only destruction. We want peace and cooperation,â said Ahmad Zia Popal, a Kabul resident. The Taliban, still sanctioned by the West and condemned for its human rights recordâespecially on womenâs rightsâcalled Russiaâs decision âcourageousâ and a model for others. While global criticism looms, many ordinary Afghans see this as a turning point. Moscowâs move also raises geopolitical questions as it deepens its footprint in the region amid growing tensions with the West.
