The Taliban are warning the Afghan government against any attacks on Taliban members who are to be freed from prison in the final prisoner release under a U.S.-Taliban deal.

Catch up on the developing stories making headlines.detainees held in Afghan prisons, the insurgent group warned the government in Kabul on Tuesday against any attacks on those released, saying such incidents would jeopardize the peace talks.

Over the weekend in Kabul, an Afghan traditional council, known as the Loya Jirga, agreed to free the final 400 imprisoned Taliban, paving the way for an early start to negotiations between Afghanistan’s warring sides. Attacks on their homes will “make it impossible for them to stay in their homes," Shaheen said. “Such incidents have happened that they have been re-arrested and also killed."

Then tens of thousands of Taliban who gave up arms to return to their homes at the time were targeted by Afghan groups and warlords they had once fought seeking revenge. In December, 2001 a convoy of Afghan elders, including former Taliban, were targeted en route to welcome U.S.-backed President Hamid Karzai. Many who survived that attack later rejoined the Taliban.

Gossman said unless a strategy is devised and a system put in place there is a danger that attacks on the tens of thousands of former fighters on both sides of the conflict could unravel a fragile peace process.

Let’s hope the freed prisoners are safe upon release. The Taliban is a group you don’t want to mess with at any point. They don’t play.

The U.S. has been in the shit hole that is Afghanistan for nearly 20 years. For what? WTF is in Afghanistan that is worth one American life? Afghanistan and Iraq are massive American blunders. Time to get the hell out of Afghanistan!

So, realDonaldTrump agreed to release Taliban prisoners ... so they can go back and try to kill more of our troops. Seems treasonous.

We spent 20 years there to see this on tv today ..he’s still standing threatening his government

Oh ya, realDonaldTrump is releasing Taliban! How about another invite to Camp David?

He would love the US! The left release violent felons every day.

Just the simple words 'US-Taliban deal' are a further testament to the total failure that has been the Trump presidency. realDonaldTrump BidenHarris
