Taliban militants wine and dine in Afghan presidential Palace [VIDEO]

Footage has gone viral on social media showing the Taliban militants wining and dining in the presidential palace formerly occupied by President Ashraf Ghani and his cabinet.

In this video, militants are seen sitting on the sofa while others could be seen eating as they chatted and laughed in the palace.

The Taliban have taken total control of the war torn country as Western nations scramble to fly their citizens and diplomats out of Kabul as fast as possible.

On Sunday, August 15, former president Ashraf Ghani fled the country to neighboring Tajikistan as the Taliban advanced on the capital, Kabul. By Sunday evening the Taliban had already declared the ‘Islamic Emirates of Afghanistan’ bringing to mind the dark days of pre-2001 when the group ruled the country with iron fist, where women had no rights, had no education and had no voice.

Also, the photo below that shows inside a US military aircraft evacuating Afghans from Kabul to Qatar has viral online.

Since Afghanistan collapsed to the Taliban, Kabul residents have been desperately looking for a way out of the capital either by road or by air.
