At dawn, residents shouted congratulations to one another, honking car horns and ringing bells on their bicycles. Northern alliance forces began moving into the capital in pickup trucks loaded with sol diers armed with rifles and rocket launchers. They met no resistance as they gained con trol of military barracks that only three hours before had been in Taliban hands. Associated Press reporters heard sporadic small amts fire coming from the hills overlook ing the city, but the streets were empty of the Taliban soldiers. Taliban military compounds were abandoned.
