earlier this evening, a guest was with us, a researcher in the african security analysis program in pretoria has more on the popularity of this military coup. >> the feeling of the protesters stem from the difficult two years before the amendment of the constitutions and the decision to hang onto power through condÉ's third term. they embraced the opposition that created the conditions for this process. unfortunately, because of the appetite for political power, what needed to be carried out has not been completed, making for military intervention. anchor: there is conflicting information out of afghanistan tonight. the taliban claiming they have taken control of the panjshir valley, the final holdout in the country, but a spokesperson with the national resistance front says it is still defending territory in the mountains and valleys. we have more. reporter: this footage posted on social media appears to show taliban members hoisting their flag above the offices of the governor of panjshir province. this comes as the group claims to have taken full control of the last pocket of armed resist
