Afghans who worked with U.S. reflect on life under Taliban

Season 2026 Episode 171 | 9m 47s

We're beginning a series of stories on Afghanistan 25 years after the Sept. 11 attacks and the start of the American war there. In our first report, we have a look at the lives of three people and their families and how they are faring five years after the Taliban wrenched control from the U.S.-supported government. Special Correspondent Leila Molana-Allen and videographer Eric O'Connor report.
