Claim: Video of Taliban trying to fly the Black Hawk Helicopter.
Fact-check: 2020 Video from Libya shared as Taliban trying to fly Black Hawk Helicopter - FACTLY
Verdict: the video is from libya and not from afghanistan. libya since 2019 had a conflict between un-recognised government of national accord  and a coalition of armed groups led by qadhafi-era military defector khalifa haftar known as the libyan national army. on 04 june 2020, gna-aligned forces were towing the mi-35 helicopter captured at the outskirts of tarhuna, tripoli. a defunct mi-35 helicopter gifted by india was seized by the taliban recently, but the video is not related to this seizure. hence, the claim made in the post is misleading.
