Videos have started to emerge from Afghanistan showing that the Taliban’s reign of terror has begun. Using a military helicopter left behind during Joe Biden’s botched withdrawal from the country, the terrorists have been flying over the Afghan city of Kandahar.
Thanks to Joe Biden’s failed withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan, the Taliban terrorists have taken over the country, and have seized weapons and equipment left behind by the United States.
A graphic which details all of the “lost” equipment has been shared across social media:

Videos have emerged from the country showing that the Taliban’s reign of terror has begun, as the terrorist group has started using the military equipment for their own purposes, and rumors have circulated that they are also in the process of smuggling and selling U.S. military weapons and equipment to other countries.
On August 30th, the Taliban were flying a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter over Kandahar.
A tweet from a Pakistani military commentator states: “Taliban flying an American-supplied UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter. Reportedly over Kandahar. According to BBC, the Afghan airforce had 33 of them in their inventory back in June. Unclear how many were captured by the Taliban & how many were smuggled to uzbekistan.”

Another video, which was originally misinterpreted by conservatives as the Taliban hanging a man from a helicopter, reportedly depicts a Taliban member, alive, hanging from the Black Hawk in a Special Patrol Insertion/Extraction (SPIE) rig while the helicopter was flying over Kandahar.
