During a graduation ceremony at a “Jihadi” school in Andkhoy, Faryab province, a speaker introducing himself as “Abu Obaida” appeared dressed similarly to Hamas fighters. In a fiery speech, he urged the attendees to rise up against “infidels” and prepare for confrontation, using sharp and militant rhetoric throughout his address.
Videos circulating on social media show the event was attended by numerous students and armed individuals. While the speaker used strong language regarding enemies of Islam, Taliban officials have not yet officially reacted to the statements made during this gathering or clarified the speaker’s affiliation.
The incident has sparked discussions online, particularly regarding the use of foreign militant symbolism within Afghanistan. The silence of local authorities concerning such open calls for uprising continues to raise questions among the public and observers.
