Afghanistan, the mistakes of the Soviets avoided. So they surprised Masood

The Panshir valley is now under the complete control of the Taliban, even if a guerrilla war continues in some mountainous areas of the province. The myth of the valley, built in the 80s thanks to the wise and telegenic direction of Ahmad Shah Massud, is destroyed, although many continue to hope for a resurrection. The question now is whether the battle of Panshir should be seen as the last of the war between the Taliban and the Islamic Republic, or the first of the new civil war.
