Luca Lo Presti, president of Pangea's Italian humanitarian organization in Afghanistan, said Taliban fighters (a movement recognized as terrorist and banned in the Russian Federation) approached Kabul and cut off electricity to the city.

According to him, 22 employees of the organization are now in the capital of Afghanistan. These are Afghan women who help local people. They can't charge the phone at this time. The organization is looking for an opportunity to ensure the safety of personnel. When employees last contacted, they expressed their intention to continue working.
La Presti has no doubt that the militants will be able to occupy Kabul. “The world is behind the shame of military defeat,” he said. World Food Program spokesman Thomson Peary previously said that the situation in Afghanistan is becoming more unpredictable, but the worst is yet to come as the biggest wave quickly approaches hunger.
Several countries have already announced that they are preparing to evacuate their embassies from Kabul.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told reporters today that Russia is dissatisfied with the current state of affairs in Afghanistan and believes that the negotiation process must be resumed.
