Surviving the Taliban: Canadian Dave’s 77 Days of Fear and Resilience
In November 2024, Canadian veteran David Lavery—known as Canadian Dave Taliban—was detained by the Taliban upon arriving in Kabul. Accused of espionage, he endured 77 days of isolation and intense interrogations.
His captivity highlighted the dangers faced by veterans and aid workers in unstable regions. Denied communication, he survived through mental resilience and hope. As diplomatic negotiations unfolded, pressure from international agencies eventually led to his release.
