Afghanistan’s Taliban rulers held a military parade with swarms of motorbikes at a former ‘linchpin’ US base after seizing power of the country three years ago.
The Taliban’s armed forces towed Soviet-era tanks as well as US-made armoured vehicles as they waved the black-and-white flag of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan in Bagram today.
The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan is the formal name given to the country by the Taliban government.
Chinese and Iranian diplomats were among hundreds who gathered for the parade at the former base which previously served as the linchpin for US-led operations against the Taliban for two decades.
