Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid told a press conference here that Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar and Abdul Salam Hanafi were named as the acting deputy prime ministers, while Mullah Mohammad Yaqoob, son of the late Taliban co-founder Mullah Mohammad Omar, was appointed as the acting defense minister.

A Taliban senior leader said that the Taliban in spite of deploying troops around Panjshir would continue dialogue, urging the people of Panjshir to help stabilize peace and security in the country.
