Here are some of the other highlights of the hearing: On Afghanistan: Milley downplayed recent battlefield successes by the Taliban in Afghanistan, stressing that most of the district centers controlled by the insurgents were seized before the U.S. military began withdrawing and that no provincial capitals have fallen. “There s 81 district centers that are currently, we think, are underneath Taliban control. That s out of 419 district centers,” he said. “There s no provincial capital that is underneath Taliban control, and there’s 34 of those. “It is true that the Taliban are sniping at and picking off outposts, etc., and they have seized some district centers,” he continued. “Sixty percent of the 81 were seized last year, and the others since the last two months or so. So, yes, we re concerned, we re watching it, but there s a 300,000, plus or minus, military force, Afghanistan army and police force, and it is their job to defend their country.”
