Some 900 Taliban members were freed from Afghanistan’s largest prison outside Kabul as part of a prisoner swap under a cease-fire deal. Former detainees were given new clothes outside Pul-e-Charkhi prison on May 26, as well as cash and transport home. The prisoner swap was part of a deal struck in February in Qatar between the Taliban and the United States.
