Islamabad, July 9, 2021:  The latest news of the civil war in Afghanistan suggests that the Taliban is controlling two-thirds of Afghanistan.

The Taliban have captured a major border crossing between Afghanistan and Iran.

The Islam Qala crossing is one of the biggest trade gateways into Iran, generating an estimated $20m monthly revenue for the government.

The Taliban are rapidly retaking land across Afghanistan as the US-led mission removes the last of its troops.

The Taliban are thought to now control more than a third of the country's 400 districts, including an arc of territory from the Iranian border in the west to the frontier with China on the other side of the country.

Russia on Friday said the Taliban had taken control of about two-thirds of the Afghan-Tajik border in a swift advance.

The latest news is that the Taliban has captured Qandahar. It is now controlling 85percent of Afghanistan.

The future scenario is that the Taliban would enter Kabul and  President Ashraf Ghani would flee back to the United States.

The Mother of All Questions is that who is supporting the Taliban?

Apart from conspiracy theorists, people have simply no clues. One interesting answer to the question is that “invisible fighters” are supporting. When you ask who are these “invisible” fighters, the answer you get is even trickier “You should believe in Jins, If so, consider “Jins”.
