Eighteen non-profit workers – including one American – have been detained by the Taliban.
The Taliban raided the offices of a Swiss nonprofit group based in Afghanistan, detaining 18 workers – including one American – for allegedly preaching Christianity, the country’s government said.
Three members, including the American, were taken in the first raid and the 15 others were taken 10 days later.
Government spokesperson Abdul Wahid Hamas said several women, including the American, were among those held,“The well-being and security of our colleagues are paramount to us, and we are doing everything possible to ensure their safety and secure their swift release,” the organization said.
