#AFG Opium for sale in Uruzgan province in Southern Afghanistan. July, 2022, Southern Afghanistan.
The future of Afghan children is fraught with many dangers. Instead of being at school, children can be seen and found inside Opium shops in places like Uruzgan in Southern Afghanistan.
Before the sales of Opium , there is always a tough bargain between farmers and opium dealers.
Inside shops like these in Uruzgan province, dealers try to identify the quality of opium.
Opium, Uruzgan province, Southern Afghanistan.
There is always a time for a story from the village!

#AFG A resident filmed this video : “ Towards PD5, towards eve Loya Jirga tent.”
Gunfire can be heard in an area where a Taliban gathering of religious leaders was being convened in PD5, Kabul city. Despite tough security measures, the attack once more shows how security and intelligence failures continues.
Yesterday Taliban organizers of the Taliban Religious scholar meeting had banned “ Cell phones, all types of weapons, knives and scissors ✂️.”

#AFG Mawlawi Mehdi Mujahid , an influential Hazara member of the Taliban, has broken away with the Taliban after he was fired as head of intelligence of Bamyan. He says 10 million Hazaras are sidelined and disenfranchised from political space by Taliban. Balkhab, Saripul.
Taliban’s rift with Mowlawi Mahdi is over the proceeds of coal mines in Balkhab. There has been a hike in demands for coal in Pakistan after the energy prices went up and the decade-long unmet energy shortages in Pakistan. Since collapse of the Republic, Pakistani businesses
flocked to the north to reap the spoils of an unregulated market and all the coal from the mines in the northern Afghanistan is now being exported to Pakistan at dirt-cheap prices.
#AFG “Taliban executed these anti Taliban resistance forces in Ragh district in Badkahshan about a week ago .” According to residents in Badakhshan province.
