Afghan President Ashraf Ghani fled Afghanistan on Sunday, a top official said, effectively ceding power to the Taliban as they reached the capital Kabul to seal a nationwide military victory in just 10 days, Geo News reported.

His exit comes hours after the Taliban ordered their fighters to wait on the outskirts of the capital following an astonishing rout of government forces.

“The former Afghan President has left the nation, leaving the people to this situation,” Abdullah Abdullah, who heads the peace process, said in a video on his Facebook page
