\u00a0“Obey Only”: Mullah Hibatullah\u2019s Warning to Taliban Dissidents.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Amid escalating internal divisions within the Taliban, Mullah Hibatullah Akhundzada, the group\u2019s leader, reiterated in a recent speech the importance of obedience, avoiding dissent, and setting aside disagreements.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He urged Taliban officials to steer clear of differing opinions, obey one another, and, as he put it, \u201ccling to the religion of God,\u201d remarks delivered in the tense context of the Taliban leadership.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This speech followed sharp criticisms by Sirajuddin Haqqani, the Taliban\u2019s Interior Minister, regarding governance issues and the challenges faced by the Afghan people. Haqqani\u2019s statements, as a prominent figure within the Taliban, sparked widespread reactions within the group and highlighted deep rifts in the power structure.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Following these remarks, the Taliban Ministry of Higher Education issued an unprecedented response directly to Haqqani, warning him not to \u201cappoint himself as Amir,\u201d as Afghanistan has only one Amir.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This clear stance underscores both the sensitivity of leadership within the Taliban and the depth of internal disputes, which appear increasingly exposed to public view.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
