In an address today, second Vice President Danish urged the people of Uruzgan to not surrender to “aggressors and to defend their soil and honor. I call on the government to act as soon as possible on the Uruzgan disaster.”
This comes after Wolesi Jerga Speaker, Abdul Rauf Ibrahimi on Wednesday, called the Taliban assault on civilians in Uruzgan as a calamity and called on the government to end what he termed the situation as “humanitarian catastrophe” as soon as possible.
According to the speaker of the lower house of the parliament, the Taliban have carried out a massacre in Uruzgan Khas district of Uruzgan and Malistan district of Ghazni province.
The Speaker also asked the Emergency Committee to deal with the displaced people as quickly as possible.
On Monday, 29 October, 12 civilians and 3 ALP forces were killed and a local commander was wounded as a result of the Taliban’s clash with the locals in Uruzgan province. Since then reportedly, more civlians including women and children have died as result of Taliban attacks.
