In Sep. 2018, Mubarez was in his rented room in Iran when he received a phone call from his family. Amina, his wife, told him that there had been a night raid, and soldiers who spoke English, Farsi, and Pashto searched the house.

When the soldiers were about to leave the area, the Taliban opened fire on them. Then an airstrike followed,which wiped out all twelve members of the Mubarez family, including his wife, four sons, and three daughters, along with four other young children.

Initially, the U.S. forces denied any airstrikes, then they admitted the airstrike but denied civilian casualties, said Mubarez, who has not rebuilt his house ruined by the airstrike. “I want justice for defenseless people, particularly for my own family.”
