The Taliban terrorist group fired a volley of gunfire into the air on Tuesday to disperse a large protest that was held in Kabul, while also arresting several journalists who covered the demonstration, according to reports.

Thousands of Afghan men and women rallied in the streets of the Afghan capital to protest against the Taliban and what they characterized as neighboring Pakistan meddling in the affairs of the Middle Eastern nation and allegedly supporting the Taliban’s return to power.
