Protesting men and women chanted slogans against Pakistan during their overnight demonstration 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."

Mohammad Mehdi Hajmohammadi, the head of the Prisons Organization, wrote on Twitter in response to the leaked images of Evin Prison: "Anger in less stressful environments than in prison is not far off." He also wrote that the two agents who clashed in the films were "punished two months before the release of the films."
