UNAMA condemns Kabul and Kunduz attacks amid growing security concerns in Afghanistan

By Fidel Rahmati

The United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) condemned the recent explosions in Kabul and Kunduz provinces. UNAMA expressed sympathy to the families of the victims and condemned the violence.

The mission stressed that the security and well-being of the people must be protected, emphasizing that there is no place for violence in Afghanistan.

UNAMA called for the safeguarding of Afghan citizens’ safety and reiterated its stance against violent actions in the country, reaffirming its commitment to peace and stability.

On Thursday, a blast occurred near the Ministry of Urban Development in Kabul, resulting in the death of one person. This follows an explosion in Kunduz two days earlier.

The Islamic State (ISIS) claimed responsibility for the explosion in Kunduz, which resulted in five deaths and numerous injuries, further indicating a deterioration in security.

These recent attacks highlight the ongoing security challenges in Afghanistan, particularly with the presence of ISIS and other militant groups. The situation calls for urgent measures to ensure the safety of civilians and to address the growing instability.

The presence of ISIS in Afghanistan has been a significant concern, with the group actively carrying out attacks in various provinces. Their ability to claim responsibility for recent bombings highlights their continued threat to the country’s security.

Despite the Taliban’s denial of ISIS’s role in many attacks, the increasing frequency of such incidents suggests that the group’s influence is expanding. The Taliban’s failure to contain ISIS is raising doubts about their control over the country’s security.
