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.

Here it is in full: “So you see those in whose hearts is disease hastening into [association with] them, saying, ‘We are afraid a misfortune may strike us.’ But perhaps God will bring conquest or a decision from Him, and they will become, over what they have been concealing within themselves, regretful.”

Amid the unrelenting cycle of war crimes and savagery, American invaders carried out six drone strikes on civilians in Garhoch area of Badpash district, Laghman province.
All six drone strikes were indiscriminate and aimed at civilian targets from which 11 innocent civilian countrymen including 5 women were martyred.
In another criminal act, the American invaders and their domestic mercenaries carried out an overnight raid on Gandomak area of Sherzad district, Nangarhar province.
The enemy forced their way inside homes by destroying gates with explosives and stole valuables from homes.
They enemy later bombed the area as well which resulted in 5 homes destroyed and 2 villagers martyred.
This barbarity and crime is taking place a day after the enemy attacked and destroyed tens of civilian homes in various areas of Faryab province’s Gurzewan district, displacing and destroying the shelter of our innocent oppressed countrymen in this bitterly cold season.
