🇦🇫❌🇦🇫 — Afghanistan United Front, an Afghan rebel group led by US-based Former ANA General Sami Sadat, announces that its forces executed two individuals accused of being spies for the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (Taliban) in Ghor Province of Central Afghanistan

Two Taliban spies executed in Ghor
The United Front of Afghanistan has arrested two people in Ghor province while spying for the Taliban’s tyrannical regime. The two have confessed to their crime, and the Front’s military judge has issued their death sentence. The sentence was carried out in two separate locations in Ghor province, and the spies were executed by the Front’s operational teams.
Since the United Front of Afghanistan began military operations, it has identified six spies for the Taliban’s tyrannical regime, who have been executed following rulings by a military court.
Under the United Front’s judicial procedures, the punishment for collaborating with the enemy is death. To ensure the security and safety of the United Front’s members, sources and information, the Front’s intelligence department pays special attention to identifying, capturing and eliminating enemy spies.
All those who have ties to the Taliban, provide them with information and equipment, or work under contract for the police, military and intelligence branches and the Promotion of Virtue department are warned to stop collaborating with this group so that they do not face our severe punishment.
Collaborating with the Taliban regime to identify the Front’s members, military sources and plans leads to the arrest, torture and killing of the Front’s members, and no Afghan should involve themselves in these crimes.
