Statement of the Diplomatic Missions of the I. R. of Afghanistan

We condemn in the strongest possible terms the spate of heinous attacks targeting institutions of education & mosques in Kabul, Mazar-i-Sharif & Kundoz – areas mostly populated by our Shia & Hazara compatriots.
After their military takeover, the Taliban promised security above all else, which proved to be nothing but an empty talk from a group which still keeps suicide squads in its ranks.
The Taliban militia have demonstrated that their promises cannot be trusted. They failed to reopen secondary and high schools for girls against their promise to both the Afghan people and the international community.
