Afghanistan will free 100 Taliban prisoners 'on humanitarian grounds—including health, age and vulnerability to COVID19,' but new ISIS-claimed violence threatens to upend a delicate peace process.
The Afghan government and the Taliban movement have agreed to a prisoner release deal as part of a cautious peace process already challenged by the new coronavirus pandemic and continued attacks staged by the Islamic State militant group .
"It was decided at the meeting that the process of releasing prisoners will begin on March 31 and that the Islamic Emirate would send a technical delegation to Bagram Prison in order to help identify, verify and release prisoners in accordance to the provided list," Shaheen said, using the official name of the Taliban.
"To carry out these further discussions, a Taliban team will meet with the government face-to-face in Afghanistan in the coming days," the official outlet said.
