Afghanistan Civil War

The Afghanistan Civil War refers to a series of conflicts that have unfolded in Afghanistan, primarily starting in the late 1970s and continuing through various phases. It began with the Soviet invasion in 1979, leading to a resistance by Afghan fighters, known as the Mujahideen. After the Soviets withdrew, civil war broke out among different factions. The Taliban emerged in the 1990s, imposing strict rule until being ousted by U.S.-led forces in 2001. Despite efforts at peace and stability, ongoing conflict between government forces, the Taliban, and other groups has persisted, impacting Afghanistan's social and political landscape.
