Alleged weapons storage and militant presence in Kabul residential area raising civilian safety concerns

Allegations of weapons stored in Kabul residential area raise concerns over civilian safety and use of human shields.

May 3, 2026

Reports from the Afghanistan Green Trend claim that Taliban forces have moved weapons and foreign militants into a heavily populated area of Kabul called Baghe Qazi. According to the report, a large weapons depot has been set up near the wheat market. It is said to include around 23 containers filled with arms.

Security sources quoted in the report say this move may be aimed at protecting weapons from possible attacks. However, it places civilians living nearby at serious risk. The presence of such a large stockpile in a residential zone has raised concerns about public safety.

Growing Fears Over Civilian Protection and Militant Presence

In addition, the report claims that foreign militants are being sheltered in the same area. This has increased fears that residential neighborhoods are being used for military purposes.

As a result, local residents are reportedly living under constant danger. The situation suggests that civilian areas may be used as protection for armed groups and equipment.

Moreover, critics say this practice contradicts claims that the Taliban are ensuring public safety. Instead, it raises concerns about the use of human shields, including past allegations involving vulnerable groups such as women and children.

In conclusion, the report calls on local communities to remain alert. It also urges pressure on authorities to remove military equipment from populated areas to prevent further risk to civilian lives.
