Anti-Taliban Front Declares Temporary Ceasefire For Ramadan

The Afghanistan Freedom Front (AFF) has announced a temporary suspension of military operations against the Taliban until the end of Ramadan.

In an official statement, the group declared that it will refrain from conducting military actions as long as its forces are not attacked and its bases and positions remain free from direct threats.

However, the front’s intelligence networks will continue their operations and maintain close surveillance of the situation.

The statement further emphasised that if the Taliban engage in actions that violate Islamic and humanitarian principles—such as harassing civilians, committing violence against women, or targeting vulnerable groups—the AFF will respond accordingly, based on the circumstances.

The AFF expressed hope that the Afghan people will experience Ramadan in peace, unity, and harmony.

The front is one of the two major armed groups opposing the Taliban, alongside the National Resistance Front (NRF).

Recently, the group claimed that over the past year, it had carried out 87 targeted attacks on Taliban bases, checkpoints, and gathering centres, resulting in the deaths of 229 Taliban fighters and the injury of 166 others.
