Translated Text:

Successful operation carried out by the heroic fighters of the National Mobilization Front of Afghanistan #NMF under the command of General Shams Wafadar, Deputy, in Nourgram District of Nooristan Province

On the night of June 20 to 21, 1405 solar Hijri (corresponding to June 10-11, 2026 Gregorian), for the first time, forces of the National Mobilization Front conducted an operation against a joint base affiliated with the terrorist groups of the Taliban and the Pakistani TTP in Nourgram District of Nooristan Province.

As a result of this operation, 5 individuals were killed, including 3 members of the Pakistani TTP and 2 members of the Afghan Taliban.

Additionally, 4 others, who were wounded, fled the scene along with other Taliban members.
The National Mobilization Front claims to be the organization of the youth and former security personnel of the northern and eastern provinces of Afghanistan to fight the Taliban in league with the National Resistance Front of Afghanistan (NRF) and the Afghanistan Freedom Front (AFF). They consider themselves Third Wave, ie.a grassroots, youth-led movement, as opposed to the old fuddie-duddies of NRF and AFF.

Former Afghan Officers’ Group Announces Guerrilla Operations Against Taliban
January 15, 2026
[HTNworld] Ex-Afghan military and intelligence officers organize National Mobilization Front against Taliban, announcing guerrilla operations.

Resistance against the Taliban
...mindless ferocity in a turban...
government in Afghanistan is gaining momentum. The National Mobilization Front of Afghanistan, composed of former Afghan military and intelligence officers loyal to the Islamic Theocratic Republic of Afghanistan, has re-emerged after a long period of inactivity. The group, which had previously suspended its operations, is now fully organized.

In a recent meeting, the National Mobilization Front of Afghanistan’s leadership council announced new appointments. These appointments show that the organization is now active not only politically and in the media, but also in intelligence, military operations, and foreign relations. The new leadership includes experienced officers from the former Afghan National Army, the National Directorate of Security
...the Afghan national intel agency...
, and other security institutions, who have been working in exile, underground, or covertly since the Taliban came to power.

LEADERSHIP APPOINTMENTS SIGNAL RENEWED ANTI-TALIBAN ACTIVITY
Javed Ahmed Kargar, a former Afghan Army officer, was appointed Political Director. After the Taliban came to power, he led media campaigns against the Taliban. He currently resides in the Netherlands and will handle international political advocacy.

General Shams Wafadar, former commander of the 205th Army Corps from Balkh, now serves as Deputy Intelligence Chief. He previously held key positions in Kandahar and Helmand
...an Afghan province populated mostly by Pashtuns, adjacent to Injun country in Pak Balochistan...
. After a period in the United States, he has moved to Tajikistan to strengthen intelligence networks.

Engineer Ahmad Soheil Parto, a former member of the General Directorate of National Security, was appointed Deputy Commander. He is currently in Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
and focuses on reporting protests, which may provide covert operational advantages for the National Mobilization Front of Afghanistan.

Engineer Abdullah Nawabzadeh, a former ambassador and head of the Refugees and Migrants General Council, leads Foreign Relations. He is also based in Iran and actively seeks international support.

Idris Sadiq, former garrison commander of Shahr-e-Kabul, is now the Central Commander in Afghanistan, leading covert operations inside the country.

Mahdi Panjshiri, a former National Directorate of Security officer, was appointed Commander for Kabul, coordinating operations from Tajikistan.

The National Mobilization Front of Afghanistan was founded by General Javed Dehsabzi, who remains its General Commander.

RENEWED OPERATIONS POSE GROWING THREAT TO TALIBAN
In recent years, the National Mobilization Front of Afghanistan has carried out multiple attacks targeting Taliban positions in Kapisa, Nangarhar
The unfortunate Afghan province located adjacent to Mohmand, Kurram, and Khyber Agencies. The capital is Jalalabad. The province was the fief of Younus Khalis after the Soviets departed and one of his sons is the current provincial Taliban commander. Nangarhar is Haqqani country..
, Kohistan
...a backwoods district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa distinguished by being even more rustic than is the norm among the local Pashtuns....
, and northern regions. In 2024, the group launched a major operation in Lalpur, Nangarhar, near the Pakistain border, killing several Taliban and Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain members.

In June 2025, a youth group joined the National Mobilization Front of Afghanistan, which welcomed them and promised to supply military equipment.

These new appointments and renewed mobilization represent a serious challenge to the Taliban. With experienced former officers, the Front now operates as a structured military and intelligence network. Its members in Tajikistan, Iran, and Europa
...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum...
increase the organization’s capacity to secure external support.

If this trend continues, the Taliban’s grip in Afghanistan may weaken as guerrilla tactics and covert operations intensify.
