Taliban Brutally Executes Afghan Commandos Who Surrendered, Video Shows

As the Taliban swiftly expands its control over Afghanistan, snatching territories held by government forces with ease,  it has also offered glimpses of the cruelty and brutality that were the hallmark of the radical Islamist regime when it ruled the country before the U.S. invaded it in 2001. A new video published by CNN shows the militants executing Afghan troops who had surrendered.

The video begins with military commandos shown walking out of a facility with their hands in the air. Sounds of Taliban gunmen shouting “surrender” can be heard.
