  • Kazakh police: Fake news: 2,000 Taliban fighters are coming to Nur-Sultan
    Kazakh police denied media reports about an incoming incursion by the Taliban.

The Kazakh military police announced that Nur-Sultan, the capital of Kazakhstan, was "under full control" of national security forces early on Sunday and denied media reports about an incoming incursion by the Taliban.

"Fake news: 2,000 Taliban fighters are coming to Nur-Sultan. This information is not true. Do not fall to provocations and panic-mongering," the police said.

According to the commandant of the Almaty region on Saturday, all facilities and infrastructure in the Almaty region of Kazakhstan are operating regularly and as per usual. 

"At the moment the situation is under control. All vital facilities are working normally," he said in a statement posted by the operational headquarters on Telegram. 

In parallel, the message says that the counter-terrorism operation in the area is ongoing.
