Thousands of Afghans on Tuesday protested against the Taliban in Kandahar after residents were asked to vacate a residential army colony. The affected area is predominantly occupied by the families of retired army generals and other members of the Afghan security forces, reports said. Notably, Afghanistan has witnessed many sporadic protests against the Taliban since its hostile takeover of the war-torn country.
