Abandoned: Afghan local speaks to the Briefing

The Taliban stormed into the Afghan capital Kabul at the weekend, just days after allied troops retreated from the city.

We're joined by Sharif Safi, co-founder of the Kabul Peace Forum, an Afghan man in Kabul facing a grim reality. He's been in Kabul this week ...and is speaking to us from his home just outside the city.

He’s in hiding and fearing for his life.
