The Afghanistan War primarily involved the United States and its NATO allies, including the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia, fighting against the Taliban and other insurgent groups. The conflict began in 2001 following the September 11 attacks, with the aim of dismantling al-Qaeda and removing the Taliban from power. Over the years, various Afghan factions, including the Afghan government forces, have also been involved in the fighting against the Taliban. The war officially ended for U.S. and NATO forces in August 2021, but the Taliban has since regained control of the country.
