Afghan Taliban authorities detained a man who had posted on Facebook about recent strikes and explosions in Kabul. The posts reportedly circulated online before his detention and included videos with sounds of explosions and reactions such as may God have mercy, what kind of strikes are these? Reports indicate he was taken into custody; some sources allege that after detention he was beaten and pressured to issue an apology and to record a video saying he shared the content without proper knowledge. Critics questioned the detention and the treatment, highlighting concerns about freedom of expression and due process.
