Digital Desk: The ruling Taliban
administration in Afghanistan referred to the death of Al-Qaeda leader Ayman
al-Zawahiri in Kabul, Afghanistan, in its initial statement as a "clear
violation" of the Doha Agreement between the organisation and the United
States of America.
Zabiullah Mujahid, a spokesperson
for the regime, issued a statement in Pashto that read, "The Islamic
Emirate (of Afghanistan) condemns this attack in the harshest possible terms
and deems it a clear breach of international standards and the Doha
Agreement."
Mujahid, the deputy minister of
information and culture in Afghanistan under the present administration led by
an Islamist group, also issued a warning to Washington regarding any upcoming
operations of a similar nature on Afghan land.
"The conduct goes against the
interests of Afghanistan and the United States of America. Any repeat in the
future could undermine current chances," the statement said.
After Osama bin Laden was killed by US Navy Seals in
Abbottabad, Pakistan, in May 2011, Zawahiri, an Egyptian national aged 71, took
over as the leader of al-Qaeda. His own demise occurred in a home held by
Sirajuddin Haqqani, a major Taliban figure and Afghanistan's interior minister.
Zawahiri's assassination operation was carried out on July
30, but US President Joe Biden didn't disclose it until Monday night (local
time) in a speech to the country from the White House. Biden stressed in his
remarks, among other things, that no civilians were hurt during the attack,
including the terrorist leader's family.
