    I guess for context for folk not following the news

    Kabul, Afghanistan (CNN)
    In the group's biggest victory in 15 years, the Taliban this week seized parts of Kunduz, Afghanistan's fifth largest city and a major strategic hub between Kabul and Tajikistan.

    On Thursday the Afghan government said it had reclaimed most of the city in a big operation backed by U.S. airstrikes, fighting has continued in the city.

    It's one stone that gives me more sympathy for Afghanistan refugees seeking asylum in Europe.

    Their home is a place that could be invaded, and slowly choked out by terrorists for months, with the government's military does nothing, at least until shit hits the fan at population centers.

    Then you have to worry about the US military, or your own government bombing you, in attempts to drive out the Taliban.
