It is being said that the dispute will intensify further in the near future. The conflict between the Afghan security forces and Taliban is drawing the attention of the world, especially at a time when the Afghan government and Taliban are engaged in peace talks in Doha, the capital of Qatar. This also raises doubts over the outcome of the peace talks.

Meanwhile, Austin Scott Miller, Commander of the US military in Afghanistan, has warned that the Taliban should stop this violence on an immediate basis. Miller cautioned that this is not consistent with the peace deal signed between the United States and Taliban and the peace talks being held between the Afghan government and Taliban. US President Trump had indicated that the US military would be withdrawn from Afghanistan before December. The analysts claimed that against this background, the incidences of Taliban attacks have increased.
