Now Taliban is in power in  Afghanistan two weeks before the U.S. was set to complete its troops retreat after a high-priced two-decade war. The Taliban stormed across the country, capturing all major cities in a matter of days, as Afghan security forces trained and equipped by the U.S. and its allies melted away. During the capture of provincial capitals and Kabul, the Taliban made some expensive captures, Here’s a look at some of them:

US Military Biometric Devices

The Taliban have seized US military biometrics devices that could aid in the identification of Afghans who assisted coalition forces. The devices, known as HIIDE, for Handheld Interagency Identity Detection Equipment, were seized while the Taliban were making advances last week, a report in The Intercept said.

Warlord’s Property

During the capture of the northern city of Mazar-i-Sharif, Taliban fighters entered the palace of a prominent Afghan warlord and US ally- General Abdul Rashid Dostum. Videos circulating on social media online show the fighters entering the ostentatious property of General Dostum and can be seen sitting on the opulent furniture and pretending to drink from a gold tea set.

Huge Cache of Weapons

The Taliban’s social media is awash with videos of Taliban fighters seizing weapons caches, the majority supplied by Western powers. Footage of Afghan soldiers surrendering in the northern city of Kunduz shows army vehicles loaded with heavy weaponry and mounted with artillery guns safely in the hands of the invaders rank and file. The Taliban is also seizing weapons from the residents as the Taliban said that they no longer need weapons for their protection. The Taliban have captured US-made Afghan military helicopters at Kandahar airport, which used to be one of the most important US bases in the country, AFP reported. In footage posted on Taliban social media accounts Saturday, an insurgent is seen walking around a US-made Black Hawk military helicopter, which is in brown-green camouflage with Afghan Air Force markings, purportedly at a Kandahar airport hangar.
