The Fall of Kandahar took place in 2001 during the War in Afghanistan. After the fall of Mazar-i-Sharif, Kabul and Herat, Kandahar was the last major city under Taliban control. Kandahar was where the Taliban movement had originated and where its power base was located, so it was assumed that capturing Kandahar would be difficult. The city fell after several weeks of fighting to a force of local militia under Pashtun military commanders and their American advisers. The fall of Kandahar signaled the end of organized Taliban control of Afghanistan.

  • وقع سقوط قندهار في عام 2001 أثناء الحرب في أفغانستان. بعد سقوط مزار الشريف وكابل وهرات، كانت قندهار آخر مدينة رئيسية تحت سيطرة طالبان. كانت قندهار هي المكان الذي نشأت فيه حركة طالبان و يوجد قاعدة قوتها، لذا كان من المفترض أن يصعب سقوط قندهار. سقطت المدينة بعد عدة أسابيع من القتال إلى قوة المليشيات المحلية تحت قيادة القادة العسكريين ومستشاريهم الأمريكيين. وأشار سقوط قندهار إلى نهاية سيطرة حركة طالبان على أفغانستان.

  • La bataille de Kandahar s'est déroulée du 22 novembre au 7 décembre 2001 entre la Coalition menée par les États-Unis (États-Unis, Australie, Alliance de l'Est, milice Sharzai) et les Talibans.

  • La Caída de Kandahar tuvo lugar en 2001, durante la Guerra de Afganistán. Luego de las caídas de Mazar-i-Sharif, Kabul y Herāt, Kandahar era la última ciudad grande bajo el control del Talibán. Kandahar fue donde se originó el movimiento Talibán y se instaló su centro de poder, por lo que se asumió que capturar Kandahar sería difícil. La ciudad cayó luego de varias semanas de combates contra una milicia local bajo el mando de comandantes pastunes y sus asesores estadounidenses. La caída de Kandahar significó el final del control organizado del Talibán sobre Afganistán.​ (es)
  • A Batalha de Candaar ou Queda de Candaar ocorreu em 2001 durante a Guerra do Afeganistão. Após a queda de Mazar-i-Sharif, Cabul e Herat, Candaar era a última grande cidade sob o controle do Talibã. Candaar foi onde o movimento Talibã se originou e onde sua base de poder estava localizada, por isso, assumiu-se que a captura de Candaar seria difícil. A cidade caiu após várias semanas de combates para uma força miliciana local sob os comandantes militares pastós e seus conselheiros estadunidenses. A queda de Candaar marcou o fim do controle organizado do Talibã no Afeganistão. (pt)
