The Taliban is intensifying a search for people who worked with US and NATO forces, a confidential United Nations document says, despite the militants vowing no revenge against opponents. The report by the UN"s threat-assessment consultants says the group has "priority lists" of individuals it wants to arrest. It corroborates testimony from a former employee of EUPOL, a European Union agency deployed in Afghanistan from 2007 to 2016 to support and train Afghan police, who also told Euronews that Taliban fighters were going door to door in Kabul to identify nationals who had worked for the international community. Taliban fighters and checkpoints ringed Kabul airport on Thursday, adding to fears for Afghan nationals who previously worked for the West. The report adds that Taliban are screening individuals on the way to Kabul airport and have set up checkpoints in major cities, including the capital and Jalalabad. The document, dated Wednesday, was written by the Norwegian Center for Global Analyses, an organization that provides intelligence to UN agencies. "They are targeting the families of those who refuse to give themselves up, and prosecuting and punishing their families "according to Shariah law,"" Christian Nellemann, the group"s executive director, told AFP. "We expect both individuals previously working with NATO/US forces and their allies, alongside with their family members to be exposed to torture and executions. "This will further jeopardize Western intelligence services, their networks, methods and ability to counter both the Taliban, Daesh (so-called IS) and other terrorist threats ahead." The report also says the militants are "rapidly recruiting" local informants to collaborate with the Taliban and expanding their lists of targets by contacting mosques and currency exchanges. The Taliban has launched a public relations blitz since sweeping back into power on Sunday, including promising full amnesty for those who worked with the elected Afghan government and foreign powers. The militant group has promised safe passage to the airport to foreigners. But Afghan nationals eligible for evacuation because of their past work for Western countries have reported difficulties and violence. The first planeloads carrying Afghan refugees have been landing in Europe. But the issue at Kabul airport is compounded by thousands of other Afghans, who do not qualify, crowding the area in the hope of securing a place on an evacuation flight. Meanwhile, US Army Maj. Gen. Hank Taylor said on Thursday that the US military now has enough aircraft to get 5,000 to 9,000 people out of Afghanistan a day. Taylor told a Pentagon briefing that 7,000 civilians had been evacuated by the US since August 14 and 12 C-17 aircraft had left over the past 24 hours, carrying 2,000 people between them. There are now more than 5,200 American troops at Kabul Airport, which has been plunged into chaos since the Taliban control of Kabul on Sunday, with hundreds of desperate civilians trying to get out of the country. Pentagon press secretary John Kirby said there had been no Taliban violence directed toward US service personnel and the US "hadn"t seen" the group obstructing any American citizens trying to leave. There have been widespread reports of the Taliban targeting Afghans on their way to the airport. Meanwhile, a State Department official said on Monday authorities were dealing with 80,000 visa applications from Afghans who had either worked with US forces or were thought to be at risk. In another development, Germany"s Interior Minister Horst Seehofer said the West "has failed" in Afghanistan. Talking to reporters in Berlin on Thursday, he added pointedly: "If Western community and the European Union, which I would like to mention here in particular, also fails in dealing with the consequences, we"ll have a huge trust problem in our community of values." Seehofer said Afghans who worked with coalition forces in the country must be brought to safety in Europe — "and if other Europeans do not participate, to Germany. I say that bluntly and clearly, without any hidden agenda or consideration for an election day. That is part of honesty." Also the G7 foreign ministers have issued a fresh call for the Taliban to guarantee the safety of all foreigners and Afghans wanting to leave the country. British Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab chaired a virtual meeting of the G7, which encompasses Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States, on Thursday. In a statement released after the talks, he said: "The G7 ministers underlined the importance of the Taliban holding to their commitments to ensure the protection of civilians and are deeply concerned by reports of violent reprisals in parts of Afghanistan. "The G7 are continuing efforts to do everything possible to evacuate vulnerable persons from Kabul Airport... and called for the Taliban to guarantee safe passage to foreign nationals and Afghans wanting to leave." Earlier on Thursday Raab came under pressure to resign from opposition Labour party MPs after it emerged he had declined to place an urgent phone call to the Afghan foreign minister last Friday. Two days before Kabul fell, the call — to push for the evacuation of Afghan interpreters who had worked with British troops — was delegated to a junior UK minister while Raab was on holiday in Crete. This delayed the discussion by at least a day because Afghan officials would not speak to someone more junior. Meanwhile, a delegation of Afghan leaders and officials told reporters in Pakistan that the Taliban won"t survive for long if it fails to uphold citizens" rights. The group, led by speaker of parliament Mir Rehman Rehmani, have been in Islamabad since Monday, meeting with Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan and other political and military officials. In a press conference on Thursday, former Afghan Vice President Mohammad Younis Qanooni, said “the future government in Afghanistan should be inclusive, with participation from all ethnic groups. We oppose rule by one party or group." Khalid Noor, a prominent politician, said the Taliban could not rule by force in Afghanistan and would have to respect people"s rights to ensure longevity. Also Taliban has given green light to Russian civil aviation for evacuations. The Russian Foreign Ministry has said it stands ready to fly "any number" of Afghans out of the country via civil aviation, and has the blessing of the Taliban to do so. Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Thursday that the Russian embassy in Kabul was still functioning as normal, and "working ties are being established with representatives of the new authorities". She added that Russia could provide planes to convey Afghans to any nation willing to host them, adding: "The new authorities in Afghanistan have assured us that there are no impediments to the arrival and departure of Russian aircraft." In another development a plane carrying 202 more Afghan nationals fleeing their country of birth touched down in Rome on Thursday. Those onboard included eight female doctors with the Veronesi Foundation, which supports medical research focused on women, and 22 of their family members, all of whom are now headed to Milan to quarantine. Another passenger was Zahrah Ahmadi, an activist whose brother lives in Venice. Italy had one of the biggest military contingents during the 20-year operation in Afghanistan. The Foreign Ministry has committed itself to evacuating those Afghans "who collaborated with Italy and who are threatened, such as women and children". — Euronews
