Northern Alliance forces threatened to massacre up to 6,000 foreigners fighting with the Taleban in the besieged province of Konduz.
Local fighters would be given a chance to surrender, but Alliance commanders said they had given their troops explicit orders to shoot every foreign fundamentalist - including a handful of British Muslims - among the enemy ranks.
High-ranking Taleban leaders would also be executed, the alliance said, apparently confirming Western fears that Afghanistan could yet be plunged into a bloodbath. "We will hang them in the stadium in Kabul where they have hanged our people," an spokesman for the alliance foreign ministry said.
