Taliban say have ‘no ceasefire plans’ in Afghanistan
KABUL, Dec 30, 2019 (BSS/AFP) – The Taliban Monday denied agreeing to any
ceasefire in Afghanistan after rumours swirled of a potential deal that would
see a reduction in fighting after more than 18 years of war.
“In the past few days, some media have been releasing untrue reports about
a ceasefire… The fact is that, the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan has no
ceasefire plans,” the Taliban said in a statement.
