According to Taliban sources, Haibatullah Akhundzada met with supporters in Kandahar. There is no official information or image in the press of the meeting, but a 10-minute video recording appeared on the Taliban's social media account. The video shows Akhundzada delivering a religious message, not a political one.
Akhundzada has been the leader of the Taliban since 2016 after his predecessor Mullah Akhtar Mansour was killed in a US drone strike.
