“For him?” shouted Snape.
“Expecto Patronum!”
From the tip of his wand burst the silver doe. She landed on the office floor, bounded once across the office, and soared out of the window. Dumbledore watched her fly away, and as her silvery glow faded he turned back to Snape, and his eyes were full of tears.
“After all this time?”
“Always,” said Snape.

The abandoned palace of Afghanistan's former vice president is now home to 150 Taliban fighters

塔利班带记者参观前副总统豪宅 揭露前政府奢靡腐败
More than 150 Taliban fighters have officially moved into the luxurious palace of a notorious US-allied Afghan militia leader, according to a newly released short documentary by The New York Times.
The mansion belonged to General Abdul Rashid Dostum, one of Afghanistan's most powerful warlords and former vice president, among the Taliban's most-feared enemies. He fled to Uzbekistan in early August before the Taliban entered Kabul, Reuters reported.
The documentary shows one Taliban fighter, Jawad Abuzar, giving a tour of the abandoned palace, which includes an indoor swimming pool, gym, sauna, steam room, and games room.
As Abuzar shows different rooms in the house, he tells the Times: "This is my first time seeing this kind of place. Though I live in the city, I am seeing this kind of place for the first time. We have spent all our lives in the mountains and deserts."
Our politicians, rich people, and powerful people have built such houses by shedding people's blood," he added.
The video also shows Taliban fighters armed with guns standing by a pool table, eating and praying together, and walking through Kabul as they await orders from the government formed earlier this week.
Marshal Dostum has been involved in wars in Afghanistan since the days of the Soviet invasion. He has reportedly sent signals to the Taliban, saying he is not averse to negotiations with them, First Post reported.
