“The Taliban have claimed to have captured two of Afghanistan’s cities — Kandahar and Lashkar Gah — in an advance that has raised fears of the collapse of the government. Confirming a claim by the insurgents, a senior Afghan security source told news agency AFP on Friday that the key southern city of Lashkar Gah has also been captured. The claim comes hours after Afghan troops abandoned the country’s third largest city — Herat — to the insurgents. The Taliban said they have taken full control of the Herat International Airport and added that all personnel at the airport have surrendered. The Taliban earlier said they had captured Afghanistan’s second biggest city of Kandahar.
