Kabul: The Taliban government of Afghanistan has asked people to voluntarily hand over government-related weapons and other property and get them confiscated as they continue operating house-to-house sweeps in Kabul city.

A press release released by the chief spokesman of the IEA Zabiullah Mujahid reads that, to prevent further continuation of the ongoing “clean-up” operations people would better hand over all government property, Khaama Press reported.

“The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan asks all Afghans to hand over weapons, government property, and illegal items and share information about kidnappers and thieves before the searching teams reach out to their houses. We ask people to cooperate with the IEA and voluntarily hand over weapons," read the statement.

The Taliban government said it will end the operations soon  if people get weapons and government properties are confiscated voluntarily.
