The Taliban said Sunday it has entered the final holdout region amid reports of heavy fighting, although anti-Taliban resistance groups denied their claims and said that numerous Taliban terrorists were captured.

Opposition groups in the Panjshir valley, led by the son of a former anti-Soviet fighter, have been holding out since the fall of Kabul about three weeks ago to the Taliban.
