Afghan Govt to Release 100 Taliban Prisoners

The Afghan government will release 100 Taliban prisoners on Wednesday, an official told AFP, a day after the insurgents said they were walking out of talks with Kabul over a delayed prisoner exchange.

"The peace process should move forward," Javid Faisal, spokesman for Afghanistan's Office of the National Security Council, told AFP.
