刑事侦缉档案4

一 | The August 15, 2021 fall of Kabul shocked the world, signaling the collapse of the West’s 20-year-long, multi-trillion-dollar nation-building experiment in Afghanistan in a single day.,Less than two weeks before the cataclysm, US and Afghan officials issued statement after statement expressing confidence in the Afghan military’s ability to fight on without American support on the ground.,“[The Afghan Army has] got greater numbers, they’ve got an air force, and, oh by the way, their air force is also flying…This is not an incompetent air force – they know how to fight from the air and they are. They have modern weaponry. They have military organizational ability as well as 20 years of training in the field by – not just the United States but our NATO and Allied partners. So they have a lot of advantages. It’s really just now about using those advantages,” Pentagon spokesman John Kirby told reporters in Washington on August 11, less than 100 hours before Kabul’s collapse.,In the chaotic few days that followed, Afghan Air Force personnel wound up flying nearly 50 helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft out of the country to neighboring Uzbekistan.,What happened? How did the US and NATO’s orderly withdrawal – which began in May 2021 amid fears that the Taliban would attack Western forces if they didn’t stick to the terms of the 2020 Trump-Taliban Doha peace deal, turn into such a humiliating and disorganized rout?,Paper Tiger vs Shoeless Army,On paper, the Afghan government and army seemed prepared for a years-long slog, similar to the one put up by the Soviet-backed Democratic Republic of Afghanistan, which managed to hold out against the Mujahedeen independently between 1989 and early 1992, even as the jihadists received billions in arms and cash from the CIA, Saudi and Egyptian intelligence, Pakistan and China. By comparison, the NATO-backed Afghan Army had serious problems with foreign support for the Taliban, with the insurgent group’s only major foreign backer consisting of Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence.,The Afghan military boasted a total size of some 300,000 personnel – the 16th largest army in the world, along with an impressive array of $85 billion in US-gifted weaponry, including tens of millions of guns, grenades and rocket launchers, 8,500 Humvees, hundreds of armored personnel carriers, infantry fighting vehicles, tanks, mine-resistant ambush protected vehicles, and thousands of heavy and light trucks.,The Air Force’s inventory included more than two hundred Russian and US-made attack and utility helicopters, dozens of transport planes, and close to 30 Cessna 208 and A-29 Super Tucano ground attack and COIN jets.,US 'Lost Track' of Afghan War Aims, Says Retired Marine General12 August, 17:00 GMT,Facing off against them were the Taliban: a rag-tag group of militants whose core fighting force was estimated to consist of about 60,000 fighters, some of them shoeless, no air force, and limited mobility due to their adversary’s total air superiority and control of fuel.,Behind the scenes, a sprinkling of media reports and testimonies from Afghan soldiers and officials told a sobering story previewing the coming disaster, discussing the widespread disillusionment, demoralization and corruption centered around military and police structures based more on patronage, personal power and enrichment than competence and aptitude.,“There is no motivation for the army to fight for the corrupt government and corrupt politicians here,” Ahmad Wali Massoud, Afghanistan’s former envoy to the UK, told the Wall Street Journal on August 10, a few days before Kabul’s collapse.,“They are not fighting for [then-Afghan President Ashraf] Ghani. They haven’t even been fed properly. Why should they fight? For what? They are better off with the Taliban, which is why they are switching sides like that,” Massoud explained.,US Military Vehicles Falling Into Taliban Hands at Alarming Rate, Report Finds3 July 2021, 15:14 GMT,Ghani himself would end up fleeing the country as Kabul fell, with his entourage reportedly carrying so much money in suitcases from the state coffers that he had to leave some of it behind. Ghani has categorically dismissed these reports and denied allegations besmirching his good name.,John Sopko, the US inspector general for Afghanistan, warned Congress in March 2021 about the state of the Afghan’s military’s demoralization, admitting that “endemic corruption” was a threat, and that it was “fueling” the insurgency and giving the Taliban the means to gain public support.,Another problem, according to a May 2021 report by the Associated Press, was lack of professionalism. Attiqullah Amarkhiel, a former Afghan Army major general, told the news agency that while the Moscow-allied Afghan Army of 1989 consisted of about 150,000 high school educated troops. By contrast, he said, the NATO-trained crack troops of the Western-backed Afghan government had just six-to-eight weeks of basic training, with most recruits uneducated and/or allied to warlords.,“Then we had quality. Today we have quantity,” Amarkhiel said.,Blitzkrieg,This demoralization and corruption, combined with what The Intelligencer characterized as an institutionally built-in deep overdependence on US coalition support, culminated in the events of early-mid-August 2021.,By mid-July of that year, the Taliban was able to take advantage of coalition forces’ withdrawal by establishing control over large swathes of the Afghan countryside. However, no major cities and none of the country’s 34 provincial capitals were under the group’s control at the time. Throughout its two-decade insurgency campaign, the Taliban only launched one major strategic offensive against a government-controlled city – striking Kandahar in May 2011 before retreating back into the countryside.,Fast forward a decade, and the militant group would finally cast off their inhibitions about offensives cities.,On August 6, the militants captured Zaranj, capital of the southern province of Nimruz near the border with Iran, in a lightning attack, with government forces putting up light resistance and local bureaucrats fleeing the city.,A day later, the militants captured Sheberghan, capital of Jawzjan province, after heavy fighting. On August 8, Sar-e-Pul, Kunduz and Taluqan, three provincial capitals in the north of the country, fell, followed by Aybak in the northern Samangan province on August 9.,August 10 witnessed the collapse of Farah in the west and Pul-e-Khumri in Afghanistan’s center. A day later, Faizabad, capital of the northeastern province of Badakhshan also fell.,Animation showing Taliban's inexorable march towards Kabul. “The problem with the army was not lack of training or weapons. The most important thing in war is politics”Read @AmyKazmin @KatrinaManson and @b_parkyn's story on why the Afghan army foldedhttps://t.co/bjjJdPp15J pic.twitter.com/Ll6JrHQWLH— Steven Bernard (@sdbernard) August 15, 2021,August 12-13 would become the darkest days for the Afghan army and government up to that point, with the cities of Ghazni, Herat, Kandahar, Lashkar Gah, Qala-e-Naw, Feruz Koh, Pul-e-Alam, Terenkot and Qalat falling to the Taliban in the space of 48 hours. On August 14, the strategic northern city of Mazar-i-Sharif fell.,Finally, on August 15, 2021, Kabul and the eastern city of Jalalabad collapsed – falling, awkwardly, while tens of thousands of coalition troops, contractors, diplomats, Afghan puppet administration assistance and Western intelligence agents were still in the country.,© AP Photo / Rahmat GulA U.S. Chinook helicopter flies over the city of Kabul, Afghanistan, Sunday, Aug. 15, 2021.

Up to 100,000 Afghan civilians, tens of thousands of Taliban fighters, over 3,500 US and coalition troops, and 4,000+ Western mercenaries also perished.,* An organization under UN sanctions for terrorist activities.。 Most missing adults are found quickly, but gaps in the system can have deadly consequences Police search for Jang Mi-ran, a 37-year-old reported missing in May, at a palm farm in Hallim-eup, Jeju Island. Jang was found dead Monday. (Yonhap)The death of Jang Mi-ran after her missing-person case was allegedly closed on false grounds has renewed scrutiny of South Korea’s system for finding missing adults.South Korea tracks missing-person reports involving adults, but ordinary adult cases are not covered by the same legal framework that allows nationwide alerts, certain forms of location tracking and DNA testing for children, people with specified disabilities and people with dementia.More than 70,000 adults were reported missing each year between 2022 and 2025. Most cases were resolved quickly, with 89.4 percent closed within a day last year and 99 percent within a month, according to National Police Agency data.Of the 70,591 adult missing-person cases closed in 2025, 931 involved people who were found dead.Jang’s case has drawn attention to what can happen when a case is closed before a missing person’s safety has been confirmed.A Jeju police officer surnamed Bu is accused of falsely telling Jang’s boyfriend and family that she was safe but did not want to be found. Police have said they found no records showing that Bu contacted her.Bu is accused of making a similar false claim in another missing-person case involving a man in his 60s, who was also later found dead.The cases have revived a long-running debate over whether police need stronger legal authority to search for missing adults, and how far those powers should extend without infringing on privacy.Gaps in adult casesJang’s cousin reportedly went to Seoul’s Nowon Police Station on July 19 to request another search for her, about two months after Bu allegedly told the family that Jang had been contacted and was safe.Nowon officials reportedly questioned whether Jang, as an adult, might simply have left voluntarily.The high rate of quick case closures has raised concern that some adult cases are treated as routine disappearances. Bu handled and closed 298 missing-person cases during roughly 17 months on a missing-person team.Meanwhile, the number of cases ending in death is not insignificant. Between 2016 and 2025, 13,639 missing adults were eventually found dead, an average of about 1,364 a year. Thousands of long-term cases also remain unsolved. Police search for Jang Mi-ran, a 37-year-old reported missing in May, at a harbor in Jeju Island. Jang was found dead on Monday. (Yonhap)Police have fewer tools in ordinary adult cases.Nationwide missing-person alerts are generally sent out only for minors, people with certain disabilities and people with dementia. Of the 3,126 people found last year under that system, 696, or 22.3 percent, were located after reports from members of the public who had seen an alert.Police searches and investigations accounted for 39.2 percent of discoveries, according to a report jointly submitted by the National Police Agency and the Ministry of Health and Welfare.Ordinary missing adults generally do not qualify for such alerts.Police have used DNA testing since 2004 to identify missing children and other eligible groups. Ordinary adult cases are not covered by the same DNA collection and comparison framework.The scale of adult disappearances is also larger. About 70,800 adult missing-person reports were filed in 2025, more than twice the roughly 29,600 involving children.Legislative pushSouth Korea enacted the Act on the Protection and Support of Missing Children and Others in 2005, establishing the legal basis for many of the search tools used today. There is no equivalent comprehensive law for ordinary missing adults.Lawmakers have made repeated attempts to fill that gap.A bill proposed in 2024 by Rep. Lim Ho-seon of the Democratic Party of Korea would establish a separate information system for missing adults and give police clearer authority to obtain location and travel information.The proposal remains pending at the National Assembly alongside similar bills.Supporters argue that broader powers could help police act more quickly when an adult is in danger. Opponents warn that the same powers could be used to track people who have deliberately chosen to leave home or cut off contact.Adults generally have the right to decide where they live and whom they remain in contact with, making the issue more complicated than cases involving children or vulnerable people.Police can already obtain location information in some cases involving signs of imminent danger. The unresolved question is whether that authority should be expanded for missing adults more broadly.。
