KABUL (Reuters) - No Taliban fighters cold be seen on the streets of Kabul on Tuesday morning, with the militia's offices deserted and some being plundered by looters, a Reuters corespondent in the city said.
Residents said some prisoners had also broken out of jails in the city, which appeared to have been abandoned by the Taliban.
After darkness fell on Monday, a stream of Taliban tanks, armored personnel carriers and battered pickup trucks could be seen leaving Kabul, heading out on the highway leading west and then south to the militia's stronghold of Kandahar.
