Prices soar and rumours fly while westerners try to leave after fall of Afghan capital to Taliban
Residents of Kabul said on Sunday that the dramatic fall of the city had left them deeply fearful, and especially worried for the futures of their wives and daughters under Taliban rule.
The streets of the Afghan capital were eerily deserted on Sunday afternoon as Taliban fighters entered the city. Most people were holed up at home. Police and security forces associated with the pro-western government swapped their uniforms for civilian clothes.
