Taliban forces unlawfully killed at least 13 ethnic Hazaras -- including nine surrendering former government soldiers and a 17-year-old girl -- in Afghanistan's Daykundi province on August 30, according to a new investigation

Since the US withdrawal from Afghanistan and subsequent Taliban takeover there has been concern that long-persecuted ethnic and religious minorities, such as the minority Shia Hazara ethnic group, will be targeted as they were under previous Taliban rule. Eleven of the victims of the August 30 killings were former members of the Afghan National Defence Security Forces, and two were civilians, Amnesty reports.

Amnesty said it has verified images and video evidence recorded following the incident and laid out events in a timeline, beginning with the Taliban taking control of Daykundi province on August 14.Taliban fighters atop vehicles with Taliban flags parade along a road to celebrate after the US pulled all its troops out of Afghanistan, in Kandahar on September 1.Read MoreCNN cannot independently verify the investigation's findings.
