Northern Alliance claims five more provinces

After marching into Kabul, the Northern Alliance on
Tuesday claimed to have captured five more
provinces, including the eastern city of Jalalabad.

Younis Qanooni, the newly appointed head of the
military commission for Kabul, told a news agency
that the Taleban had lost Nangarhar, Kunar and
Laghman provinces in the east along with Ghazni in
the south and Farah in the west.

"According to the written reports that I have received, the Muslim people
of the eastern zone in general, and also Ghazni and Farah, have been
liberated," he said.

Meanwhile, United States President George W Bush said he was "very
pleased" with the developments in Afghanistan
