Afghanistan has witnessed a rise in violence in recent weeks as the
Taliban stepped up its offensive after international troops began withdrawing from the country in May. The troop pullout was one of the points of
the agreement that the Taliban and the United States reached in Doha in February of last year.
According to US Central Command (CENTCOM), the withdrawal is 95 complete. The US authorities believe the American military will leave the country by the end of August, before the 20th anniversary of the campaign, which was launched soon after the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
In the meantime, the Taliban claims to be in control of over 85 percent of Afghan territory, and 90 percent of its borders - which the nation's government denies, calling these statements "blatant propaganda".
