Claim: Video of a man belonging to the Taliban accidentally shooting himself while testing a weapon.
Fact-check: Old video of a man accidentally shooting himself in Pakistan is passed off attributing it to the Taliban - FACTLY
Verdict: the video shows an incident which took place in abbottabad, pakistan back in 2019, wherein a man accidentally shot himself during a celebratory gunfire before a wedding ceremony. multiple news agencies have reported the incident back then. the video has nothing to do the taliban or for that matter afghanistan. hence the claim made in the post is false.
