More on the BBC operation which revealed the Taliban are active in 70% of Afghanistan

Two of the lead journalists behind a BBC investigation in Afghanistan reveal some of the challenges they faced in mapping the activity of the Taliban.

Two of the leading journalists on a BBC investigation which uncovered the Taliban are active in 70% of Afghanistan, and in full control of 14 districts, are revealing the challenges they faced in setting up the operation. Louise Adamou and Auliya Atrafi worked with dozens of colleagues over months to uncover the extent of control in the war torn country. They tell Rajan Datar about the moments that resonated most and what they hope the impact of their findings will be. 

Also, a BBC Arabic listener has some questions after hearing last week’s item on the service’s 80th birthday.
