Mullah Salam, a warlord in Zabul[?], Afghanistan, had earned the nickname "Mullah Rocketi" for his love for high-tech weapons when he was leading forces against Soviet troops that invaded Afghanistan in the 1980s. He joined the Taliban when the militia gained power over major parts of Afghanistan in the 1990s, serving as a commander in the eastern city of Jalalabad.
