KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — The Taliban are celebrating their third year as rulers of Afghanistan at a former U.S. air base. But they’re not talking about Afghans. Aid agencies warn that humanitarian efforts in the country are gravely underfunded and that economic collapse and climate change are destroying livelihoods. A grand military parade Wednesday at Bagram, once the center of America’s war to unseat the Taliban, saw senior Cabinet figures laud their administration’s achievements. The parade was also a chance to showcase the hardware left by U.S. and NATO-led forces after decades of fighting.
