Juma Khan Fateh, a Tajik Taliban commander in Badakhshan who has opposed the Taliban leadership, has rejected reports that his forces have surrendered or disarmed.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a new message, Fateh said that claims of surrender were \u201cfalse, baseless, and part of psychological warfare,\u201d adding that his weapons and positions remain non-negotiable.<\/strong><\/p>\n
