University of Medical Sciences: 22 coronary patients died in the last twenty-four hours in Alborz

Coinciding with Ahmad Massoud's call for a general uprising against the Taliban, a group of men and women demonstrated in Kabul on Monday night, chanting "Death to Pakistan" and "Long live Afghanistan," in the presence of the head of the military intelligence. Pakistan also protested in Kabul

Kabir Wasiq, the deputy governor of Panjshir, says there is currently intense fighting in Panjshir and Andarab, and that resistance forces have advanced in the two areas. He claimed that the resistance fighters had inflicted heavy casualties on the Taliban.

Following Ahmad Massoud's call for a public and national uprising, thousands took to the streets in Mazar-e-Sharif, the capital of Afghanistan's Balkh province, on Monday night, chanting protest slogans.

Simon Baghdasarov, director of the Center for Middle East and Central Asia Studies in Moscow, reviewed last night's developments in Panjshir and said that the civil war in Afghanistan might start with force. He sees the presence of ISIS in Afghanistan as a serious challenge and says they may start a war that is not for Afghanistan.

"Uprising against Pakistani rule is a national and conscientious duty of every Afghan citizen," said Rahmatullah Nabil, Afghanistan's former head of national security, following Ahmad Massoud's call for a general uprising against the Taliban. "Death to Pakistan! Death to Pakistan!" Nabil wrote in a note on his Facebook account. "Pakistan was / is the enemy of Afghanistan."
