Taliban authorities permitted a 13-year-old boy to execute the killer of his family, witnessed by tens of thousands of people.

Rahmanullah Lakanwal was once an Afghan counter-terrorism operative, but a stalled refugee life in the United States and psychological trauma turned this veteran into a murderer.

The Taliban supreme court announced the public execution of a man convicted of murder.

President Trump announced that the U.S. intends to halt asylum consideration for an extended period, emphasizing that Washington "does not want them."

The US announced a halt to asylum processing following an incident where an Afghan immigrant shot two national guard soldiers, killing one.

Rahmanullah Lakanwal, the suspect in a shooting that killed one US National Guard soldier and injured another, is believed to have served in Zero, an Afghan special forces unit that cooperated with the CIA.

The US has indefinitely suspended the intake of immigrants from Afghanistan after two national guardsmen were seriously wounded in a shooting in Washington, D.C.
