Taliban Divided From Within | Kandahar vs Kabul Power Struggle Explained | BBC Revelations

In today’s vlog, we discuss the growing internal divisions within the Afghan Taliban leadership.
Based on a recent BBC investigative report, the Taliban government appears to be divided between two major power centers — Kandahar and Kabul.

We explore how ideological differences, governance issues, women’s education, and control over technology have deepened the rift between the hardline Kandahar faction led by Hibatullah Akhundzada and the more pragmatic Kabul leadership. This internal power struggle raises serious questions about the future direction and stability of Afghanistan.

What Lies Ahead?

By early 2026, the situation appears outwardly stable, but tensions remain unresolved. Although rumors circulated about punitive actions against Kabul ministers, Akhundzada reportedly avoided harsh measures to prevent an outright split.

Official Taliban spokesmen downplay the crisis as mere “differences of opinion,” yet experts argue that an ideological battle is now unfolding through speeches, policies, and power moves—one that could shape Afghanistan’s future.

📌 Watch this episode for a deep, unbiased breakdown of the Taliban’s internal power struggle and what it means for Afghanistan, the region, and global politics.
