The Taliban have discovered a white Toyota of Mullah Omar, the founding leader of the Taliban, which was buried 21 years ago. When the US forces invaded Afghanistan in 2001 as a response to the 9/11 attacks, Mullah Omar hid his personal vehicle by burying it.

The car was discovered mostly unharmed and wrapped in plastic. However, the front mirror of the car was broken.

Senior officials have demanded that the car should be placed in Kabul’s national museum.
