What does the resurrection of the Taliban mean for the people of Afghanistan

As the Taliban completes its takeover of Afghanistan civilians have reached new heights of desperation in their attempt to flee the country.

There has been chaos at Kabul international airport, with at least seven people killed after crowds of Afghans tried to board a moving American Air Force plane.

Video shows desperate images of people clinging to and falling from planes taking off from the runway.

A US official said troops fired in the air to deter people trying to force their way onto a military flight which was taking diplomats and embassy staff out of the fallen city.

So, what does the resurrection of the Taliban mean for the people of Afghanistan?
