Taliban under fire as Afghans speak out

Reports of growing public opposition and armed resistance against the Taliban administration are emerging from different parts of Afghanistan, as citizens increasingly express dissatisfaction over the country's economic conditions and governance, reported the 24NewsHD TV channel on Wednesday.
A video message reportedly recorded in Kabul shows an Afghan citizen criticising the Taliban's policies, claiming they have contributed to rising inflation, unemployment, and worsening living conditions. 
The speaker said that Afghans could no longer rely on outside assistance and must take responsibility for challenging the current administration.
"The time has come to free Afghanistan from Taliban rule and bring an end to the current regime," the individual said in the video, reflecting what appears to be growing frustration among some sections of the population.
In another video reportedly recorded in Jalalabad, a local resident also criticised the Taliban, claiming that the city, once known for its vineyards and agricultural production, has become a symbol of repression and fear under the current authorities.
The speaker alleged that residents of Jalalabad continue to suffer under Taliban rule while the group's supreme leader, Mullah Hibatullah Akhundzada, remains unaware of their hardships. 
The resident also accused the Taliban of acting contrary to their stated ideological principles and failing to serve the interests of the Afghan people.
The circulation of these videos comes amid continued reports of armed resistance activities in parts of Afghanistan, highlighting ongoing opposition to Taliban rule.
