Former Afghanistan Vice President Amrullah Saleh has alleged that the Taliban are committing war crimes and "have zero respect for Human Rights of Afghans" in the war-torn country.

Saleh, in his tweet, also called on the international community to consider the 'barbaric acts' of the Taliban. "Over the past 23 years since the start of the Emergency Hospital, we never blocked Talibs access to it. Talibs are committing war crimes & have zero respect for IHL(International Human Rights). We call on UN & world leaders to take notice of this clear criminal & terrorist behaviour of the Talibs," he said in a series of tweets.
