The Wider Image: Afghanistan's young Taliban fighters face the challenge of peace
Taliban member Rohullah Nasratullah, 24, from Maidan Wardak Province, who is now in charge of security at a Kabul police station, holds a walkie talkie as he poses for a photo while on patrol at a cricket field in central Kabul, Afghanistan, October 15, 2021. Picture taken October 15, 2021. "When I started in the Jihad against the Americans, I was 14 or 15 years old," said Nasratullah. "During that time, my brother was our group leader and I used to participate in some battles only. But when I turned 20, I spent all my time with the mujahidin and in battle," he added. "I am so delighted because we have fulfilled all the ambitions that we have been carrying for the past 20 years." REUTERS/Jorge Silva SEARCH "YOUNG TALIBAN SILVA" FOR THIS STORY.
