In the continuing series of war crimes and deliberate killing of common people, American invaders accompanied by Kabul administration troops carried out an overnight raid on Tangi Sayedano clinic and Goda village of Chak district, Maidan Wardak province.
This major crime resulted in the destruction of Tangi Sayedano clinic while 4 civilians (clinic administrator, on-duty doctor, a nurse and a patient) were ruthlessly murdered.
This crime happened on the same night as the occupying and puppet enemy bombed the home of villager (Ismail) located in Kutb Khelo village of Puli Khumri city’s PD2, Baghlan province, from which the house was destroyed, a woman and 5 children martyred and Ismail himself wounded.
Some 4 days earlier Haji Nadir village in Dand-e-Shahabuddin was also bombed, leaving an innocent woman martyred and 5 children wounded.
Moreover, bombings were carried out six times against civilians over the past 5 days in Bakhtabad, Aliabad and Karez Denak areas of Shindand district, Herat province, from which a mosque was destroyed and 4 civilians martyred, 3 wounded in Bakhtabad area, 2 civilians were martyred and 3 wounded in Aliabad area, a white-bearded shop owner was also martyred while 2 more civilians were martyred in Karez Denak area.
The Islamic Emirate strongly condemns all these deliberate murders and war crimes, calls on international human right organizations to question the American invaders about these war crimes and genocide and prevent such crimes from continuing.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Aghanistan’s Zabīh Allah Mujāhid: “Claims of American General Regarding Threat of Da’ish in Afghanistan Are Baseless”

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

l_DzlA8Q

The US commander of central command in Afghanistan – General Frank Mckenzie – in a statement with media in Germany, claimed that Daesh is a major threat in Afghanistan that threatens United States.
The statement comes while the so-called Daesh mischief that has been supported by America since first day of its emergence is not a great force that can be labeled a threat.
Mujahideen of Islamic Emirate and Afghan Nation have strongly resisted Daesh and purged many parts of the county from this miscreant, however with aerial support of American invaders and intelligence assistance of Kabul administration a small group of Daesh still exists in some parts of eastern Afghanistan.
Mujahideen of Islamic Emirate have just launched operations against Daesh in Nangarhar province to rescue the oppressed people from the evil of Daesh, but American invaders and their local puppets bomb Mujahideen military lines from time to time and carry out raids to create opposition to prevent full eradication of Daesh evildoers and provide it an opportunity of taking breath.
If American generals really fear from Daesh, then why they are avoiding its elimination and are creating hurdles against Mujahideen operations.
Statements of American generals are opposite of their actions. Their occupation is practically providing Daesh a ground in Afghanistan and they are using its name and existence as an instrument.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Aghanistan’s Zabīh Allah Mujāhid: “Reports About Da’ish’s Presence In Northern Afghanistan Are Untrue”

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

l_DzlA8Q

A few days ago, claims were initially made by some Russian officials followed by some Kabul administration officials about presence of 5000 Daesh or other foreign fighters in northern Afghanistan.
The Islamic Emirate considers these reports untrue and based on faulty information.
The American invaders and officials of the Kabul administration are exploiting the phenomenon of Daesh to stoke fears in the neighboring countries and the wider region.
The Islamic Emirate conducted a large-scale operation against the corruption of Daesh in the country’s north.
Daesh was completely uprooted in the north after a few days of clashes with most members either killed or surrendering while around 200 including multiple leaders were rescued by the Kabul administration and Americans and transferred to Balkh and Kabul.
Latest information suggests that a number of those corruption-spreading Daesh rescued in Kabul administration helicopters from Darzab have been relocated by the Kabul administration intelligence to Darzab district center, rebranded as Arbakis and given control over multiple check posts.
This is done to preserve an element termed Daesh in that location so that the Kabul administration officials can portray it as a threat to the neighboring and regional countries.
Moreover, the Americans and Kabul administration intelligence apparatus are preserving and assisting the mischief of Daesh in some parts of eastern Nangarhar and Kunar provinces to keep another front open against the Mujahideen of Islamic Emirate alongside threatening neighboring and regional countries.
The Islamic Emirate does not allow the presence or activity of any corrupt element termed Daesh in its controlled areas and has carried out multiple decisive operations for its eradication.
Reports about such a large number of Daesh or other foreign fighter presence in northern Afghanistan area untrue and baseless reports about this issue are politically motivated.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Aghanistan’s Zabīh Allah Mujāhid: “Remarks Concerning Violence Towards Prisoners in Puli Charkhi”

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

l_DzlA8Q

It is with great sadness to have received reports that yesterday (Tuesday) our oppressed countrymen inside Puli Charkhi prison completely unarmed and lacking any weapons or lethal tools were attacked with live fire by Kabul administration troops resulting in tens of inmates martyred and wounded.

The Islamic Emirate condemns this cowardly action and considers it a violation of all humanitarian and international laws.

Attacking defenseless prisoners with live fire and causing them death and injury cannot be justified under any circumstance and can only be interpreted as the pinnacle of feebleness.

We urgently press all human right organizations, humanitarian institutions and the international community to fulfill their responsibilities, condemn this action, demand an explanation from the puppet Kabul administration and take concrete steps in preventing such horrible occurrences in the future. But if they cannot take any practical steps in this regard then they should not expect any help from the Islamic Emirate in any such related issues.

The Islamic Emirate – as a protector and well wisher of its nation – expresses its deepest sadness and prays for Paradise for the martyrs and quick recovery for the injured.

It also shares in the grief of the families of prisoners and vows that it shall take revenge upon the tyrannical and cowardly enemy for its oppressed countrymen at an opportune time, Allah willing.

The Islamic Emirate has expressed concern many times about the continuing mistreatment, negligence and inhumane behavior towards inmates inside American and Kabul administration prisons. Prisoners are handled contradictory to all internationally recognized principles, obligations, responsibilities and commitments; they are deprived of their rights, lack proper living conditions, are not given medical treatment, are not afforded meetings with family members at designated times and are sometimes targeted in revenge for defeats and failures on the battlefronts, a prime example of which is yesterday’s incident in Puli Charkhi.

Special Representative of the US State Department and head of negotiation team Khalilzad met with the Political Deputy of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan and head of the Political Office, the respected Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar.

Views were exchanged about key aspects for a peaceful resolution of the Afghan issue. The Political Deputy of the Islamic Emirate remarked:

It is absolutely vital that the two key agenda points of the previous meeting (full withdrawal of foreign forces from Afghanistan and preventing Afghanistan from harming others) be finalized. This will open the way for resolving other aspects of the issue and we cannot enter into other topics before this. It was affirmed in the meeting that talks shall resume today (Wednesday) and the mentioned points shall be extensively discussed so that an agreement can be reached regarding all issues including the withdrawal of foreign forces.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Aghanistan’s Zabīh Allah Mujāhid: “Clarification Concerning the Postponement of the Qatar Conference”

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

l_DzlA8Q

An intra-Afghan conference was scheduled to take place on the 20th and 21st April in the Qatari capital of Doha but has now been cancelled. We deem it necessary to make the following clarification: 1 – A decision was made during the Moscow conference on 6th of February that a similar conference will again be held in Qatar. The Islamic Emirate is still committed to that policy and pledge of an identical conference being held; rather the Islamic Emirate went a step further by agreeing to allow an even larger number of male and female compatriots to attend when compared to the Moscow conference. It was agreed that all participants of the conference shall declare their own personal views regarding the Afghan issue however the Kabul administration officials launched efforts to introduce this conference as a negotiation’s meetings between the Kabul administration and the Islamic Emirate, a position in conflict with the policy of the conference. 2 – All participants attended the Moscow conference in a personal capacity and the upcoming Qatar conference was also planned with similar guidelines from the very first day. Both the hosts of the conference and Qatar made it clear and even stipulated this point in the invitation letters that all individuals shall partake in personal capacity but the head of Kabul administration (Ashraf Ghani and another official Umar Daudzai) repeatedly held press conferences and declared that members selected by them shall participate as representatives of the Kabul administration, a clear attempt at sabotaging this conference and peace efforts. 3 – Just as all the arrangements for the conference were finalized, the Kabul administration officials launched their own bizarre meetings inside the Arg palace, announcing their red lines and conditions, claiming host status for the conference, filing and publicizing a participant list not only ill-suited for the conference site and situation but also having not chance of being accepted. And the strangest of all was the publication of this list before even sharing or reaching an understanding or agreement with the conference hosts, deliberately creating turmoil. 4 – At a time when the policy of the Islamic Emirate is absolutely clear that the initial stage of the negotiations process shall resolve the foreign aspect of the issue – meaning the complete withdrawal of foreign forces from Afghanistan as dialogue with the powerless and crumbling Kabul administration is a waste of time.

But even with this policy, over thirty Kabul administration peace council and other officials were accommodated in the Qatar conference and majority of the list was comprised of current and former members and supporters of the Kabul administration partaking in a personal capacity whereas only twenty five members of the Islamic Emirate were to be part of the conference. Yet the Kabul administration still insisted on a 250 member lopsided list which was an inappropriate undertaking.

5 – The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan reassures its oppressed nation and the world that the Islamic Emirate has made use of absolute patience. The Political Office and Negotiation Team headed by the respected Mullah Baradar Akhund worked day and night, exercised self-restraint and showed flexibility in policy to the highest level; but since Kabul administration officials and secret circles created obstacles for this effort therefore its responsibility also falls upon their shoulders. The Help of Allah and support of nation shall remain with us and the enemies of peace shall themselves come to understand that they miscalculated and were wrong. 6 – In the end we thank all individuals and parties especially the distinguished Qatari officials, officials of Center for Conflict and Humanitarian Studies and sincere peace activities inside the country who aided in this process and tried their best till the very end, may Allah (SwT) reward them for their efforts, specifically those who prepared themselves for the conference. Those eminent personalities who went to Kabul from adjacent provinces and some who even arrived at Doha, we show our utmost appreciation for all their efforts and hope for further resolve in their future efforts. The Islamic Emirate shall continue its legitimate struggle until true peace prevails and an intra-Afghan Islamic system is established, Allah willing.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Aghanistan’s Zabīh Allah Mujāhid: “Clarification Regarding Intra-Afghan Conference In Qatar”

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

l_DzlA8Q

As our fellow countrymen are already aware, an intra-Afghan conference in planned for the 20th and 21st April in the capital of Qatar, Doha. We must clarify that the hosts of this conference have explained in both written and verbal form that no one will be representing the Kabul administration in this conference. If any participant is affiliated with the Kabul administration as was the case in the Moscow conference, they shall partake in a personal capacity and express their own personal views as no one is allowed to represent the Kabul administration.

The Kabul administration has published a list of 250 participants for the said conference but the hosts of this conference have no plans of accepting so many people from Kabul and neither is such participation normal in such conferences.

Only a limited number of political and national figures from this list are selected for the finalized list and only they shall be participating.

The creators of Kabul list must realize that this is an orderly and prearranged conference in a far-away Khaleeji country and not an invitation to some wedding or other party at a hotel in Kabul.

Arranging and publishing such lists signifies that the Kabul administration fears these conferences and progress towards peace and is trying to be a spoiler with such actions.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Aghanistan’s Zabīh Allah Mujāhid: “Reaction to the U.S. Remarks Regarding the Anti-Occupation Spring Operations”

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

l_DzlA8Q

Reaction to US remarks regarding anti-occupation spring operations
Yesterday the Islamic Emirate announced its spring operations to uproot occupation, attain sovereignty and establish an Islamic system.
Following the announcement, the military commander of American forces in Afghanistan Scott Miller and Special Representative of the State Department Zalmay Khalilzad showed a strong reaction to the Islamic Emirate’s operation and called it reckless.

They must understand that this war has been imposed upon us by you.
Defending one’s life, wealth, honor, country, religion and frontiers is the legal right of every nation and human society, and Afghans specifically are extremely sensitive and distinct than to any other nation in the world in this matter.
We also wish to remind them that in every meeting during the previous five rounds of talks, the negotiation team of the Islamic Emirate proposed that civilian casualties must be avoided. Your night raids and bombings that mostly abduct and martyr defenseless Afghan women, children, elders and students of schools, madaris and universities must be halted however it was you who ignored those proposals.

Khalilzad and Miller are expressing sensitivity to our Jihad and defense while simultaneously supporting the operations declared by the Kabul administration.
They must end their crimes against humanity by realizing their own responsibilities. Over the past nine months, the American invaders have raided the homes of Afghans every night and martyred countless sleeping women, children and elders or taken them as captives. Bombs are rained across the country every day, homes, mosques, madaris, schools and clinics destroyed and according to their own admission, 7000 bombs have been dropped on our homeland during this short period.

Hence real recklessness and inhumane actions are these war crimes and crimes against humanity and not the Afghan resistance, defense and Jihad.
We condemn remarks by Khalilzad and Miller, turn their attention to answering for their own actions and consider their remarks regarding the ongoing Jihadi operations as inappropriate.

We also want to clarify that we are committed to the ongoing negotiations process and a peaceful resolution but cannot remain indifferent to the military operations and ongoing crimes of the invaders and their internal supporters.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Aghanistan’s Zabīh Allah Mujāhid: “Remarks Regarding Conclusion of Latest Round of Talks”

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

l_DzlA8Q

Talks that began with the United States on the 25th of February 2019 came to an end today, 12th March 2019.
This round of talks saw extensive and detailed discussions taking place regarding two issues that were agreed upon during January talks. Those two issues were the withdrawal of all foreign forces from Afghanistan and preventing anyone from harming others from Afghan soil; how and when will all foreign forces exit Afghanistan and through what method? Similarly, how will the United States and her allies be given assurances about future Afghanistan?
Progress was achieved regarding both these issues. For now, both sides will deliberate over the achieved progress, share it with their respective leaderships and prepare for the upcoming meeting, the date of which shall be set by both negotiation teams.

It should be mentioned that no agreement was reached regarding a ceasefire and talks with the Kabul administration, nor were other issues made a part of the current agenda. Reports by some media outlets in this regard are baseless.
