In an audiotape released today by the new leader of the Taliban movement, Mullah Akhtar Mohammad Mansoor, he swore to continue a long struggle, and called on like-minded people to be united.
"We must preserve our unity, we must be united, our enemy will be happy if we split up. We have a big responsibility. It is not the work of one, two, or three people. We are all responsible for the continuation of jihad until we proclaim an Islamic state,’’ gazeta.ru cites him.
