Karim Amin, a prominent figure of the Hezb-e-Islami Party, told Afghanistan International that the Taliban has instructed Gulbuddin Hekmatyar, the party's leader, to evacuate his current dwelling and office and relocate to a different location.
On Sunday, Taliban forces surrounded Hekmatyar's home in Kabul.
Contradicting local narratives about a siege at Hekmatyar's residence, Amin clarified that the Hezb-e-Islami's main office is not surrounded by the Taliban. He explained that a decision was made regarding the relocation of the party leader's home and the party's principal office.
The contention appears to revolve around the property housing Hekmatyar's residence and office, which the Taliban asserts is owned by the group's Ministry of Defence.
