Description of incident

On May 4, 2009, a United States Air Force B-1 Bomber conducted an airstrike on Granai village in Bala Buluk district, Farah Province, resulting in significant civilian casualties. The incident, sometimes referred to as the Granai massacre, became one of the deadliest civilian casualty events involving international military forces in Afghanistan. The exact number of civilian deaths remains a matter of dispute among various investigative bodies. The Afghan government reported approximately 140 civilian fatalities, including 22 adult men and 93 children. Afghanistan's principal human rights organization concluded that 97 civilians were killed, with children comprising the majority of victims. Other estimates place the civilian death toll between 86 and 147 individuals. An initial investigation by the US military assessed that 20-30 civilians were killed alongside 60-65 insurgents. However, these figures were contested by Afghan authorities and international observers. A subsequent, partially released American inquiry acknowledged the limitations of the investigation, stating that a conclusive determination of the civilian casualty count would not be possible. The United States military accepted responsibility for the airstrike and admitted that significant errors occurred in its execution. Official statements acknowledged that the failure to identify the presence of civilians and to minimize collateral damage resulted in unintended civilian casualties.

On November 13, 2025, the body of Amanullah Hasani, a 65-year-old Hazara farmer, was discovered in the Dahan Yaghak area of Khalaj village in Gizab district, Uruzgan Province. According to local residents, Hasani had disappeared from his home approximately three days prior to the public report on November 14, 2025. Community members described the victim as a farmer who maintained no known conflicts or enmities with any individual or group. A village resident told Etilaatroz newspaper that armed Kochi individuals were responsible for the killing. The source further stated that several other village residents had been killed in similar circumstances in the past. According to the same source, local residents had filed multiple complaints with Taliban authorities regarding these incidents, but local officials allegedly did not respond to their grievances. The circumstances surrounding Hasani's death and the allegations regarding the perpetrators remain unconfirmed by independent sources.

Description of incident

On the morning of Friday, November 14, 2025, Nowruz, an approximately 30-year-old father of two children, was killed in an armed attack in Qoto Sofla village, DaY Mirdad district, Maidan Wardak Province. The victim was shot as he left his home. His brother, Rahmatullah, who had followed him outside, was also shot and critically injured with a head wound. Rahmatullah was transferred to Emergency Hospital in Kabul and placed in a coma under medical care. According to local residents who confirmed the incident, Nowruz was an original resident of Qoto village. He and his family had been displaced to Kabul and other villages in recent years and had only recently returned to their ancestral home. Local sources reported that the four attackers had concealed themselves the night before the assault in the neighboring village of Qoto Ulya, which is uninhabited. On the morning of the attack, they approached Qoto Sofla through a mountain route and opened fire on Nowruz as he exited his home. Taliban intelligence authorities arrested four Kochi (nomadic Pashtuns) men on suspicion of involvement in the attack. The motive for the assault remains unclear; however, local sources indicated that Kochies had conducted repeated attacks on Qoto village residents in the past, forcing them to flee. According to these sources, more than 200 families once lived in both Qoto villages, but the area became largely uninhabited over the past decade due to repeated attacks. Nowruz's family was reportedly the first to return to the village within the past two years, driven by economic difficulties in Kabul. Local residents stated that the killing appeared aimed at preventing villagers from returning to their homes.

On November 20, 2025, Noorullah, a 14-year-old boy from Qoto village in Day Mirdad district, Maidan Wardak Province, died following a severe trauma-related illness. Noorullah was the younger brother of Nowruz, who was killed in an armed attack on November 14, 2025, and Rahmatullah, who was critically injured in the same incident when two armed Kochi men (nomadic Pushtuns) opened fire as they were getting out of their home early morning.

Description of incident

On the afternoon of November 6, 2007, at approximately 4:15 PM, an explosion occurred in Pul-e Khumri, the provincial capital of Baghlan Province. The incident took place during a visit by Afghanistan's Parliamentary Economic Commission, which had traveled to the area to attend the reopening ceremony of the newly reconstructed Baghlan Sugar Factory. According to eyewitness accounts, an individual detonated explosives among a crowd of people who had assembled to greet the parliamentary delegation. The attack resulted in between 70 and 97 fatalities, with casualty figures varying across different reports, and injured nearly 200 individuals. A substantial portion of the victims were school students who had gathered in formation to welcome the government officials. Six members of the National Economy Commission of Afghanistan's Parliament were killed in the attack, including the commission's chairman, Sayed Mustafa Kazimi. The other deceased parliamentarians represented various provinces across Afghanistan, including Takhar, Kunar, Helmand, Kunduz, and Kabul. While it was widely believed that the attack was carried out by a suicide bomber, no group claimed responsibility for the incident. The precise circumstances and motivation behind the attack were never officially confirmed.

Description of incident

On the afternoon of November 6, 2007, at approximately 4:15 PM, an explosion occurred in Pul-e Khumri, the provincial capital of Baghlan Province. The incident took place during a visit by Afghanistan's Parliamentary Economic Commission, which had traveled to the area to attend the reopening ceremony of the newly reconstructed Baghlan Sugar Factory. According to eyewitness accounts, an individual detonated explosives among a crowd of people who had assembled to greet the parliamentary delegation. The attack resulted in between 70 and 97 fatalities, with casualty figures varying across different reports, and injured nearly 200 individuals. A substantial portion of the victims were school students who had gathered in formation to welcome the government officials. Six members of the National Economy Commission of Afghanistan's Parliament were killed in the attack, including the commission's chairman, Sayed Mustafa Kazimi. The other deceased parliamentarians represented various provinces across Afghanistan, including Takhar, Kunar, Helmand, Kunduz, and Kabul. While it was widely believed that the attack was carried out by a suicide bomber, no group claimed responsibility for the incident. The precise circumstances and motivation behind the attack were never officially confirmed. The general assessment indicated that members of the Afghan Parliament were the primary intended targets of the assault.

The other deceased parliamentarians represented various provinces across Afghanistan, including Takhar, Kunar, Helmand, Kunduz, and Kabul. While it was widely believed that the attack was carried out by a suicide bomber, no group claimed responsibility for the incident. The precise circumstances and motivation behind the attack were never officially confirmed. The general assessment indicated that members of the Afghan Parliament were the primary intended targets of the assault.

Witness/Survivor Statement

بالکل سوخته بود راوی: محرم‌علی نبی‌زاده قربانی: مریم نورزاد زمان حادثه: ۲۳ ثور ۱۳۹۹ مکان حادثه: شهر کابل، دشت برچی، شفاخانه صدبستر بسم الله الرحمن الرحیم از اینکه برای ما وقت دادید یک جهان سپاس و تشکری می‌کنم از تک تک شما، دوما سلام و درود به روان پاک شهدای افغانستان خصوصا همین سال جاری که یک تعداد زیاد مردم افغانستان به شهادت رسید. خوب، هرچند سخت است واقعاً... <..مکث..> اگر هر وقت که یاد کنیم درد آنقدر زیاد است که به مغز استخوان آدم شاید برسد، حس کند انسان [این درد را] اما باید یاد کنیم روح شهدا باید از ما شاد باشد، نام‌شان را جاویدان نگاه کنیم چون شهدای نام گم نباشند برای ما، برای مردم افغانستان. بخشش باشد که من اول خود را معرفی نکردم؛ محرم‌علی نبی‌زاده هستم شوهر شهید مریم که در ۲۳ ثور سال جاری (۱۳۹۹) در شفاخانه صد بستر شهید شدند. خوب زیاد وقت‌تان را نمی‌گیرم فقط از روز حادثه برای شما یاد می‌کنم یک چند لحظه مقصد تشکر که وقت می‌دهید برای ما. من در جریان وظیفه شهید مریم چون ماه مبارک رمضان بود هر روز -خانهٔ ما از شفاخانه زیاد دور نیست، تقریبا در پای پیاده ده/ دوازده دقیقه راه باشد- می‌رساندم همکاری می‌کردم، همراهی می‌کردم تا خود شفاخانه را چون ماه مبارک رمضان بود روزه داشتم دیگه می‌گفتم یک انرژی برای [انجام] وظیفه برایش داده باشم [که] خسته نشوند. طبق معمول همان روز هم که روز سه‌شنبه بود ۲۳ ثور او را پیش شفاخانه رساندم، -صبح پانزده کم هفت همانقدرها بود- خدا حافظی کردیم به امید اینکه بعدازظهر باز برای من زنگ می‌زند باز پشتش بروم، دیگه پس خانه آمدم برای من گفتند که چون عید نزدیک است لباس خود را که گرفتی به خیاطی ببر که دوخته شود. همان روزی که... همان لحظه‌ای که آمدم خانه حدوداً یک ساعت/ یک‌ونیم ساعت گذشت پس رفتم طرف سرک نزدیک شفاخانه که پشت سرک یک جر است در آنجا رسیده بودم که مردم بسیار سراسیمه می‌دوند طرف خانه‌های خود بسیار وحشت‌زده. خوب پرسان کردم چه گپ است؟ گفتند انتحاری داخل شفاخانه شده هیچ کس هم نیست که دفاع کند. خوب واقعا خیلی دردآورد است که در آنجا در شفاخانه بی‌آزارترین قشر جامعه بودند؛ طفل نوزاد، خانمی که برای ولادت رفته بود یا مریضان و نرس و قابله‌ای که در آنجا برای خدمت مردم بود برای خدمت به انسانیت؛ یعنی داکتران بدون مرز آنها همین رقم که شعارشان است که بدون مرز هستند، داکتران بدون سرحد برای آنها انسانیت مهم است دیگه هیچ چیزی دیگر ندارند فقط برای انسانیت خدمت می‌کنند. خوب در آن وقت واقعا دلم تکان خورد چون من همان شناختی که از شهید مریم خانم خود داشتم برای مریض خود بسیار دلسوز بود، گفتم اگر انتحاری داخل شود و اگر در حین تداوی مریض باشد شاید که دیگه... چون خبر داشتم (سیف روم) دارند گفتم شاید سیف روم هم نروند، شاید کنار مریض خود بنشیند واقعا دلم همانجا تکان خورد. خوب رفتم بسیار وحشت‌زده سون شفاخانه دویدم که... خو متأسفانه نیروهای دولتی هم که به خاطر چک پاینت بودند شاهدهای عینی که قصه می‌کنند که در آنجا دو سه رنجر بودند، دو تا رنجر بودند که به خاطر وضعیت کرونا موترها را چک می‌کردند که بیروبار نباشد، آنها فرار کرده بودند در آن صحنه. خوب، مردم بسیار وحشت‌زده بودند بسیار خشمگین بودند سر نیروهای امنیتی که می‌گفتند یا ما را سلاح بدهند یا بروند داخل شفاخانه دفاع کنند که آنجا هیچ‌کس برای دفاع نیست. کلش طفل نوزاد است، خانمی که برای ولادت رفته یا مریضانی هستند که در بستر هستند. خوب بودیم همانجا کسانی که مرا دل می‌دادند می‌گفتند غصه نکو آنها سیف روم دارند؛ خوب چقدر سیف روم باشد که بسته چند صد نفر را در آنجا، چقدر نفر در سیف روم جای شود. ماندیم تقریبا تا ساعت‌های دو بجه یا سه بجه همانجا بودیم روز برای من... هیچ نمی‌فهمیدم مثل روز قیامت بود برای من. خوب نیروهای امنیتی وقتی گفتند پاکسازی شده تا آن وقت بعض شهدا را، زخمی‌ها را که می‌کشیدند کمک می‌شدیم یگانه خواست من این بود که باید اولین کسی که بروم داخل شفاخانه شوم یا زخمی خانم خود را یا که مثلا ده... هرچه باشد من باید زودتر خود را برسانم اما موفق نشدم تا وقتی که نیروهای امنیتی گفتند ما پاکسازی کردیم ساحه را کسی دیگه از انتحاری نمانده شما بروید از پشت سر شفاخانه که آنجا مهمان خانه داکتران بدون سرحد از خارجی‌ها بودند آنجا بروید ما داکتران را از آن طرف بیرون کشیدیم یعنی [در] امن است کل‌شان صحت دارند چیزی نشده آنها را. متأسفانه آنجا که رفتم نیافتم خانم خود را. همان همکاران‌شان می‌گفتند که هستند چون خبر داشتند یا هر رقمی که بود برای دلداری من می‌گفتند؛ [می‌گفتند] مریم است ما دیدیم در فلانی سیف روم بود یا همراه من بود خو نیافتمش. من پس آمدم خانه موتر را گرفتم همراه دوستانی که قوم و خویش بود تقسیم شدیم در بسته شفاخانه‌های کابل تا یازده بجه شب را هر شفاخانه را شاید ما سه دفعه چهار دفعه جستجو کرده باشیم که شاید پیدا شود اما متأسفانه پیدا نشد که در بین راه بودیم یکی از دوستان برای مه زنگ زدند گفت در کجا هستی گفتم طرف شفاخانه می‌روم باید بپالیم که پیدا شود یا زخمی‌اش یا هر رقم... خو باید بپالیم که پیدا شود گفتند شما یک بار طب عدلی را بروید سیل کنید چون آنها خبر شده بودند. متأسفانه طب عدلی ساعت‌های یازده‌ونیم بجه شب بود که رفتیم ما در آن وقت سه تا شهید را دیدیم در طب عدلی که از شهدای شفاخانه بودند دیگرانش تعدادشان زیاد بود وارثان‌شان برده بودند. خوب برای ما گفتند اگر آمادگی‌اش را دارید داخل سردخانه می‌بریم شما را نشان می‌دهیم اگر ندارید نه؛ گفتیم ما مجبور هستیم که باید سیل کنیم. وقتی رفتیم یعنی مه وقتی خانم خود را دیدم نشناختم سه تا شهید بودند که دو تای‌شان در روی خود مرمی خورده بودند دیگه خانم مه سوخته بود که هیچ نشناختم آن وقت، بالکل سوخته بود. گفتند یکی از داکتران سوخته که دیگران‌شان مریض بودند یک تا داکتر سوخته. گفتم نه او مریم نیست. باز آمدیم خانه شب خانه بودیم که نه سحری را فهمیدیم در ماه مبارک رمضان تا صبح را بیدار نشستیم. صبح وقتی که باز دوستان تقسیم شدند کلگی رفتند طرف شفاخانه و حوزه کلگی، ما رفتیم طرف طب عدلی که مادر... پدر شهید مریم خسرم تلفن خود را سیل کرد در فیس بوک یک چیزی را دید که به نام مریم بخاطر مریم یک نفر پُست مانده بود که قابله مریم مریض خود را در عین [حمله] انتحاری رها نکرده دوستانش گفته بروید داخل سیف روم اِی مریض زیر دستش بوده در حال ولادت گفتند که من اگر مریض خود را رها کنم جان می‌دهد مریضم یعنی بسیار وضع مریضش خوب نبوده. در آن وقت تا این مریض خود را ولادت می‌دهد طفل را نجات می‌دهد مادر را نجات می‌دهد که سیف روم بسته شده وقتی سیف روم بسته شده اِی مریض را نجات می‌دهد می‌خواهد که سیف روم برود می‌بیند که سیف روم بسته است. طرف حویلی که می‌دوند انتحاری در مغزش، به سرش شلیک کرده بود که همانجا پهلوی موتر افتاده بود باز بالای موتر هم نارنجک انداخته بود موتر که در گرفته بود سوخته بود بالکل. همین پست را که دیدیم بازهم باور نکردم گفتم نه مریم ما زنده است. طب عدلی رفتیم داخل حویلی بودیم که از شفاخانه برای ما زنگ زد دوستان که بیایید یک دفعه پس شفاخانه صدبستر بیایید. گفتم چه شده؟ گفتند با عجله بیاید. ما فکر کردیم که حتما یافت شده مریم شهید نیست زنده است، یافت شده برای ما گفت بیایید عجله بیایید چه می‌کنید در آنجا. آنجا رفتیم که متأسفانه -آن روز را کاشکی هیچ نمی‌دیدم- پهلوی موتر سوخته فقط از آثاری که مانده بود موبایل سوخته بود، عینکِ... شیشه عینک‌هایش مانده بود که چوکاتش بالکل سوخته بود یک تا گوشواره‌اش مانده بود که یک تا گوشش... بالکل مغزش سوراخ شده بود مرمی سوراخ کرده بود یعنی آن را که یافتیم گوشواره را دیدم مثلا [شیشه] عینک‌ها را دیدم، موبایل سوخته تنها تختش مانده بود آن وقت فهمیدیم که این سوختهٔ همان شهیدی [است] که شب در طب عدلی دیدیم او خانم من بود. دیگه یعنی واقعا خانم قهرمانی بود که سیف روم... یعنی آدم چه بگوید چه رقم بیان کند من درد خود را اصلا بیان نمی‌توانم برای شما. کسی که شهید دیده‌اند شاید درک کنند کسی که ندیده آرزو می‌کنم که این را تجربه نکنند، اِی را جای ما تجربه نکنند مثل مه واری. یعنی در حادثه شفاخانه ما از دو زاویه، دو بعد می‌بینیم یک طرف نهایت جنایت، یک طرف نهایت کینه ببین طفلی که تازه تولد شده، طفلی که هنوز در شکم مادر خود بود مرمی خورده، طفلی که تازه تولد شده شاهدان عینی می‌گویند ما وقتی که رفتیم طفل را کشال کرده بود از پایش گرفته بود به دیوار زده بود طفل نوزاد را آنجا یعنی مادرش را با برچه گلویش را بریده بود دیگه او طرف که مریم در صورتیکه در اتاق‌های پهلویش مردم مرمی‌ می‌خورده شهید می‌شده این بسیار با جسارت بسیار با مهربانی مریض را ولادت می‌دهد طفلش را نجات می‌دهد یعنی امیدهایش، اولادهایش در خانه یک طرف اما نجات یک مریض برایش بسیار مهم بود نجات یک انسان یعنی ما می‌بینیم اگر انسان طرف انسانیت برود واقعا از [مقام] انسانی بالا می‌رود و به فرشتگی می‌رسد اگر انسان بد شود از حیوان کرده پست‌تر [می‌شود] نام یک حیوان را سرش مانده نمی‌توانیم که در آن شفاخانه ما دو زاویه را می‌بینیم دو جهت را که یک طرف شهید مریم مریض را نجات داده در حین که جانش در خطر بود، امیدهایش بود تمام آرزوهایش باز می‌فهمید که -ما خوب دیدیم سال‌ها در اینجا ما کلان شدیم در افغانستان متولد شدیم که انتحاری وقتی یک جایی می‌رود فقط قتل می‌کند و می‌کشد- اما او در آن وقت در آن زمان مریض خود را نجات داد، طفل را نجات داد انتحاری آمد همان مادر را همان طفل را و همین داکتری که -مریم که مریض و طفل را نجات داد- اینها را شهید کرد. یعنی این بیانش برای من بسیار این رقم ساده می‌گویم اگر آن صحنه را مجسم کنید چقدر یک صحنه‌ای است که واقعا دردآور است. تشکر از توجه شما.

Known as the "Killing of AGSA," it refers to the collective murder of opponents of the People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan in the Pul-e-Charkhi Prison in Kabul between 1978 and 1979. The Afghan Intelligence Office, or AGSA (Afghan Agency for Safeguarding National Interest), led by Asadullah Sarwari, had arrested nearly 150,000 people, out of which an estimated number of 27,000 political prisoners were put to death without a single trial, probe, or even allegation. Many Afghan families had no idea where their loved ones had disappeared in the latter part of 1978 and early 1979. A list of those slain that included 5,000 victims of AGSA mass executions was made public by the Dutch Prosecutor's Office in 2013.

Description of incident

Known as the "Killing of AGSA," it refers to the collective murder of opponents of the People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan in the Pul-e-Charkhi Prison in Kabul between 1978 and 1979. The Afghan Intelligence Office, or AGSA (Afghan Agency for Safeguarding National Interest), led by Asadullah Sarwari, had arrested nearly 150,000 people, out of which an estimated number of 27,000 political prisoners were put to death without a single trial, probe, or even allegation. Many Afghan families had no idea where their loved ones had disappeared in the latter part of 1978 and early 1979. A list of those slain that included 5,000 victims of AGSA mass executions was made public by the Dutch Prosecutor's Office in 2013.

Description of incident

Abdul Latif was in ninth grade when he was called for military service during Dr. Najibullah’s rule. He tried to escape many times but failed. After completing his training, he was sent to the frontline. The last time he fought was in ta battle between the Mujahideen and the government in Paktia Province. A rocket hit their trench during the operation killing and injuring many soldiers. My brother lost his life due to severe head injuries. He was only 22 years old. His death changed everything, but it affected my parents the most. With him, we lost all our hope. My mother lost her sight and grief replaced her happiness until she passed away a few months later.

Witness/Survivor Statement

Abdul Latif was a kind and hardworking young man and he had only two dreams, first to continue his studies and second to help us, especially my father in providing a better livelihood for the family. We had a difficult life, but Abdul Latif was considered our family’s hope for a brighter future. His promises of a better future after graduation from the engineering faculty always excited my parents. He also encouraged our siblings to continue their studies because that was the only way to a better future. He himself always wanted to be an engineer but was not made to realize his dreams. Abdul Latif was in ninth grade when he was called for military service during Dr. Najibullah’s rule. He tried to escape many times but failed. After completing his training, he was sent to the frontline. The last time he fought was in ta battle between the Mujahideen and the government in Paktia Province. A rocket hit their trench during the operation killing and injuring many soldiers. My brother lost his life due to severe head injuries. He was only 22 years old. His death changed everything, but it affected my parents the most. With him, we lost all our hope. My mother lost her sight and grief replaced her happiness until she passed away a few months later. When Dr. Najibullah’s government collapsed, the Civil War between the Mujahideen groups intensified in Kabul. A rocket hit and destroyed our only home. We lost every single thing we had and had to run for our lives. During the Taliban rule, our only goal was to survive so we left the country in despair and disappointment. Living in refugee camp was no better than the ruins of Kabul but we had to bear it to stay alive. Before joining the military, Abdul Latif assisted my father and provided half of the little income we had. After him, my father protected and supported us until he married us all off. He is now alone, suffering in pain and grief of losing both my brother and my mother. We cannot do anything to heal his grief and remove his sorrows. I just wish this war comes to an end and no other father has to ever bury his loved ones and end up alone.

Description of incident

Known as the "Killing of AGSA," it refers to the collective murder of opponents of the People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan in the Pul-e-Charkhi Prison in Kabul between 1978 and 1979. The Afghan Intelligence Office, or AGSA (Afghan Agency for Safeguarding National Interest), led by Asadullah Sarwari, had arrested nearly 150,000 people, out of which an estimated number of 27,000 political prisoners were put to death without a single trial, probe, or even allegation.

Description of incident

Incident Date: September 21, 2024

Location: Near Sarpahlu Sang village, Dawlat Yar district, Ghor province, Afghanistan (bordering Daykundi province)

Victims: 13 residents of Qariwdal village, Sang-e-Takht district, Daykundi province, One passerby from Palon Sang village, Ghor province, Four severely wounded survivors

Perpetrators: Four armed individuals, later claimed by ISIL-Khorasan Province

Incident Summary:

On September 21, 2024, at approximately 1:00 PM, a group of 17 residents from the small village of Qariwdal in Daykundi province were en route to welcome two fellow villagers returning from a pilgrimage to Karbala, Iraq. As they approached the border area between Daykundi and Ghor provinces, near the small village of Sarpahlu Sang in the Dowlat Yar district of Ghor, they encountered four armed men on motorcycles. The armed individuals identified themselves as security forces [of the Taliban] and assured the group that they were searching for a suspicious person, telling them not to worry. The assailants then instructed the villagers to line up, ostensibly for a commemorative photograph. One attacker began taking photos while another started filming. Without warning, the other two opened fire on the group from both sides. The attack resulted in the immediate deaths of 13 Hazaras, all from the Qariwdal village. Four others were severely wounded. Additionally, a traveler from Palon Sang village in Ghor, who happened to be passing through the area during the shooting, was killed while attempting to flee. The day following the attack, ISIL-Khorasan Province claimed responsibility for the massacre in an official statement.

Incident Date: September 21, 2024

Location: Near Sarpahlu Sang village, Dawlat Yar district, Ghor province, Afghanistan (bordering Daykundi province)

Victims: 13 residents of Qariwdal village, Sang-e-Takht district, Daykundi province, One passerby from Palon Sang village, Ghor province, Four severely wounded survivors

Perpetrators: Four armed individuals, later claimed by ISIL-Khorasan Province

Incident Summary:

On September 21, 2024, at approximately 1:00 PM, a group of 17 residents from the small village of Qariwdal in Daykundi province were en route to welcome two fellow villagers returning from a pilgrimage to Karbala, Iraq. As they approached the border area between Daykundi and Ghor provinces, near the small village of Sarpahlu Sang in the Dawlat Yar district of Ghor, they encountered four armed men on motorcycles. The armed individuals identified themselves as security forces [of the Taliban] and assured the group that they were searching for a suspicious person, telling them not to worry. The assailants then instructed the villagers to line up, ostensibly for a commemorative photograph. One attacker began taking photos while another started filming. Without warning, the other two opened fire on the group from both sides. The attack resulted in the immediate deaths of 13 Hazaras, all from the Qariwdal village. Four others were severely wounded. Additionally, a traveler from Palon Sang village in Ghor, who happened to be passing through the area during the shooting, was killed while attempting to flee. The day following the attack, ISIL-Khorasan Province claimed responsibility for the massacre in an official statement.

Description of incident

Incident Date: September 21, 2024

Location: Near Sarpahlu Sang village, Dawlat Yar district, Ghor province, Afghanistan (bordering Daykundi province)

Victims: 13 residents of Qariwdal village, Sang-e-Takht district, Daykundi province, One passerby from Palon Sang village, Ghor province, Four severely wounded survivors

Perpetrators: Four armed individuals, later claimed by ISIL-Khorasan Province

Incident Summary:

On September 21, 2024, at approximately 1:00 PM, a group of 17 residents from the small village of Qariwdal in Daykundi province were en route to welcome two fellow villagers returning from a pilgrimage to Karbala, Iraq. As they approached the border area between Daykundi and Ghor provinces, near the small village of Sarpahlu Sang in the Dawlat Yar district of Ghor, they encountered four armed men on motorcycles. The armed individuals identified themselves as security forces [of the Taliban] and assured the group that they were searching for a suspicious person, telling them not to worry. The assailants then instructed the villagers to line up, ostensibly for a commemorative photograph. One attacker began taking photos while another started filming. Without warning, the other two opened fire on the group from both sides. The attack resulted in the immediate deaths of 13 Hazaras, all from the Qariwdal village. Four others were severely wounded. Additionally, a traveler from Palon Sang village in Ghor, who happened to be passing through the area during the shooting, was killed while attempting to flee. The day following the attack, ISIL-Khorasan Province claimed responsibility for the massacre in an official statement.

Description of incident

Around 4:30 p.m. on October 24, 2020, a suicide bomber detonated his explosive device inside the Kawsar-e Danish Educational Center in the western portion of Kabul City's PD-13 neighborhood in the Pol-e-Khoshk district. The educational institute provided coaching for high school students preparing for university entrance exams. This attack resulted in at least 43 students being killed and 72 more being injured. The attack happened in a primarily Hazara neighborhood in Dasht-e-Barch, where the majority of the high school students attending the tuition center were Hazara. The Islamic State of Khorasan Province (IS-KP) claimed responsibility for the attack.

Witness/Survivor Statement

Narrator: Nasrin Naderi

Victim: Nasrin Naderi

Date of the incident: 24 October 2020

Location of the incident: District 13, Kabul City, Pul-e Khoshk, Dasht-e Barchi, Kausar Danesh Educational Center

In the name of God, I am Nasrin Naderi, the daughter of Mohammad Aman Naderi from Maidan Wardak province, Daymirdad district. I am 18-years-old and have graduated from school. However, due to the coronavirus situation, I have not yet been able to take the university entrance exam. At the moment, I am busy with social activities. Our family resides in Maidan Wardak, but I am in Kabul for my education. We have rented a room here. Due to the lack of facilities and insecurity, we have left our village of Naqshi in the Daimirdad district. Every year, we are attacked by nomadic tribes. I don't know their motive, whether political, ethnic, or otherwise, but we are attacked by them annually. These attacks cause us both human and financial losses. When they occur, all villagers flee to the mountains or elsewhere. Upon returning to their homes, they find their animal supplies and food materials burned, along with their schools and houses. It has been a few years now since my parents left. Initially, they were here with me, but once quarantine was introduced, they returned to Maidan Wardak and have remained there until now. It's been about two years since they left. My father is farming, and I have been here for approximately five or six years.

Unfortunately, I sustained injuries. The first incident took place at Kawsar Danesh in February 2018. Human rights activists certainly know that the incident; it was the first incident that happened to Afghanistan's education center and it had a serious impact on educational programs. In this incident, my hand was wounded by shrapnel. The attacker was carrying a hand grenade, and I was only one or two meters away from him. It was the first time I saw the explosion of a human being with my eyes. No one was killed, but many were wounded, most of them girls because they were sitting in the front row. The second incident happened in 2019. I witnessed an incident at Mauood that impacted heavily on my mental health and I was obliged to take a break from my studies for a year. After Mauood was hit, we lost confidence but we carried on. Once the Kawsar educational center was thriving again, we went back there and enrolled in the preparation course for the university entrance exam. Once again, there was an explosion at Kawsar Danesh alley last year in the fall. I don't recall the incident accurately; I think it was on the 29th of October. We were in the alley, and I was injured in the back by shrapnel. It penetrated deeply and reached close to my spinal cord. Due to the serious risk, the doctors in Kabul did not want to take responsibility for such a complex operation. A neurologist was needed, an expert in such surgery, but there was no such person.

Unfortunately, due to financial constraints and my father's self-employment as a farmer or street vendor, we've been unable to afford the expenses of surgery in private hospitals or seek medical treatment outside Afghanistan. Walking poses significant challenges for me. Every few steps I take, the wound area becomes bruised, leading to subsequent internal bleeding. Although the doctors have extracted the shrapnel, my injuries persist. The damage is situated on my spine, suggesting severe internal trauma. The shrapnel was only removed from my body about fifteen or sixteen days after the incident, by which time it had shifted 15 millimeters. I'm enduring immense suffering as a result of this ordeal. Despite being a victim, I reject such a label; I am averse to the term 'victim.' In my view, no one is a victim if they possess the determination and resolve to fight. I am committed to ensuring that no one else experiences the pain and suffering I have endured.

Perhaps I lack all the details; even if I once knew them, they've slipped from my memory. It was around 4:00 pm when our class was dismissed, and we were on our way to a chemistry session when the explosion rocked the alley. Our class at Kausar is large; at least 800 students attend. As we moved to another class, my friend Shukria Hussaini and I were reviewing our lessons when we noticed a young boy carrying a large sport shoulder bag, a rare sight given the center's rules. Another institution, Afghan IT, shared the same alley, so we didn't find his presence suspicious. Despite what we'd been taught about the signs of a suicide bomber, we saw no indication of such in him. My friend nudged me, pointing out the boy's bag size. When I turned, dust and smoke filled the air. Though close, we heard no sound, only saw blood everywhere, and people covered in it calling for aid. It was terrifying. I realized my clothes were drenched in blood, my fresh wound throbbing. Shukria had passed out, and I felt paralyzed, unsure of what action to take. I'm uncertain who transported me or how I reached home, or who relayed the news. When I came to, we were at Dar al-Salam hospital, where I spent days. With no adequate medical facilities, my condition worsened. The shrapnel had caused intense bleeding at the back of my head. Though it wasn't a major blood vessel, the risk was severe.

I hope to survive these adversities faced at such a young age. By international standards, we're still children. Let's transform these hardships into energy for our ambition, refusing to succumb to despair or isolation. We shouldn't see ourselves as just victims of Afghan conflict. Instead, let's aspire to compete globally in science and art.

Well, as I mentioned before, not all my classmates were close friends. It is difficult to have close friends in a classroom with 800 students. I loved all of them; we raised our voices together, studied together to understand derivative and integral and electric currents. There was only one friend whose death hit me hard, Miss Maleka Ibrahimi. I was truly hurt by losing her. She was a girl with beautiful political and economic ideas; a lady whose loss you can not ignore. We didn't spend much time together but looking at our strong friendship, it hurts to have lost her. I lost another friend in 2017 in Mauood, Miss Rahela. Miss Rahela and I were in the same English class; we completed our English course together and we attended other courses together. Rahela was determined to take the entrance exam. Since I lost them, I have tried to forget them, but it's difficult. You can’t forget such individuals.

'The Killing of AGSA' refers to the collective murder of opponents of the People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan between 1978 and 1979, in the Pul-e-Charkhi Prison in Kabul. The Afghan Intelligence Office, or AGSA (Afghan Agency for Safeguarding National Interest), led by Asadullah Sarwari, had arrested nearly 150,000 people, out of which an estimated 27,000 political prisoners were put to death without a single trial, probe, or even allegation. Many Afghan families had no idea where their loved ones had disappeared to. A list of those slain, including 5,000 victims of AGSA mass executions, was made public by the Dutch Prosecutor's Office in 2013.

Mohammad Asghar was arrested in Panjshir Province in late 1978 and taken to Pul-e-Charkhi prison. He has not been seen since then.

Description of incident

My father was born in 1947 and finished his primary school at the Said Jamaluddin High School. Due to severe poverty, he could not continue high school so he joined Military School to earn a livelihood for the family. He became a junior officer and started working with the army. In 1965, he was sent to the Khost Division where he worked until he disappeared 14 years later in 1979.

Witness/Survivor Statement

The Story of Rahmatullah Safi (son)

Victim’s Name: Lal Jan

Date of Incident: 1979

Place of Incident: Khost Province

My name is Rahmatulalh. Lal Jan was my father. I was born in 1976, three years before he disappeared. We are from the village of Qala-e-Tak in the Shiwa District of Nangarhar Province. My father was born in 1947 and finished his primary school at Said Jamaluddin High School. Due to severe poverty, he could not continue high school so he joined the Military School to earn a livelihood for the family. He became junior officer and started working with the army. In 1965, he was sent to Khost Division where he worked until he disappeared 14 years later in 1979.

He was a critic of the People’s Democratic Party of Afghanistan and denounced the regime for torturing and killing innocent civilians and political opponents. One day, after he had finished his prayers and left the mosque, my father was arrested by AGSA agents waiting outside the mosque. We waited until late at night for his return. In the early morning, my grandfather went to the Division to find out more, but there was no sign of him. We had to leave Khost and return to the Shiwa District in the Province of Nangarhar. My grandfather went to Kabul. He visited officials in the Ministry of Interior, Ministry of Defense, and the AGSA to find my father, but failed. He tried all viable options and sought help from the PDPA officials but it didn’t work.

My father was 32-years-old, the only son, and the greatest supporter of our family. After he disappeared, we sold our ten acres of agricultural land to keep searching for him and to provide a living for the family. We had nothing left after that and struggled with extreme poverty as we were merely children. My grandfather could not accept his son’s death; he kept waiting for him until his last breath. Extreme poverty and the absence of our father also profoundly affected my two younger brothers. Due to economic and psychological pressures, they lost their patience and became mentally ill. They would always ask about him and suffered from having to live a destitute and starving life. My mother got depressed and ill after my father’s disappearance and suffered terribly from seeing our situation.

I added my father’s remaining belongings to the Memory Box to keep his memories alive and to let everyone know that killing the father in a family is actually no less than massacring the entire family.

Description of incident

I was only six-months-old when my father and uncle were arrested by the People’s Democratic Party of Afghanistan Regime. One night, AGSA agents attacked our home and took away my father and uncle. They were accused of being Maoist and Akhwani (Muslim Brotherhood) members. My father was a nurse and my uncle was just a farmer. Both had no political affiliations.

I was only six-months-old when my father and uncle were arrested by the People’s Democratic Party of Afghanistan Regime. One night, AGSA agents attacked our home and took away my father and uncle. They were accused of being Maoist and Akhwani (Muslim Brotherhood) members. My father was a nurse and my uncle was just a farmer. Both had no political affiliations. Since there was no evidence or proof against them, we were hopeful they would be released within days. Only six years had passed from my parents’ wedding when my father disappeared.

To prevent any further arrests, my grandfather and uncle avoided taking food or clothes to my father and uncle. They sent my youngest uncle instead. The last time my uncle visited them at the Logar Detention Center, my father had explained that they will be transferred to Kabul for further investigation and would be released after a few days. Unfortunately, when they were transferred to Kabul, after eight days they disappeared forever. My uncle was 45 and my father was only 33-years-old. After my father disappeared, my mother started working as a tailor to support us. She never married again, waiting for my father’s return and taking care of us. My eldest sister was 5-years-old, I was six-months-old, and my youngest sister was born only six months after my father disappeared. My maternal uncle helped a lot in the process and never gave up on us until we grew up.

To save my uncles from a similar fate, my grandfather took us to Pakistan. My uncle had left behind four children and we used to live together until nine years ago when we separated into two families. For 35 years, we lived in Pakistan. We suffered and struggled just to get daily food. Despite ongoing conflicts and continuing insecurity, we had to return to Afghanistan in 2013. Just a few months after our return, I heard that the Kingdom of the Netherlands had published a list of 5,000 victims executed by the PDPA regime between 1978 and 1979. I unfortunately found my uncle and father’s names on the list. I felt like I had lost my father all over again; the little hope we had for their return was shattered forever. But I had to stay strong to support and protect my mother, who waited for almost 40 years for my father to return alive. In order to remember and revive their memories, I went to the Polygon area where their bodies are possibly buried in mass graves.

I added a few of their remaining belongings to the Memory Box to keep their memories alive and to let everyone know that we will never be able to forget our loved ones who disappeared and were killed by blind violence and political rivalry between just a few groups or individuals.

Witness/Survivor Statement

The Story of Asif Malistani (son)

Victim’s Name: Abdul-Qayum Malistani

Date of Incident: 1979

Place of Incident: Pul-e-Charkhi, Kabul

My father disappeared in April 1979. He was working with the Department of Disaster Prevention when he was arrested by the Communist Regime. Since then, we do not know whether he is alive or dead. Until 1966, my father lived in Malistan. He studied Islamic Theology and Sharia there and had handwritten a famous Shiite epic poetry book called Hamla-e-Haidari. He completed his military service in 1966 and then moved to Kabul with his family. Since he was educated, he was hired as junior staff at the Ministry of Defense. In 1973, he was transferred to the Department of Disaster Prevention where he had to travel to Zabul, Farah and other provinces to report on the situation of homeless and poor families.

In April 1978, the Saur Revolution occurred and in early 1979, my father was arrested. I was still a child and could not understand the political and social situation, so I do not remember much but my elder brother still remembers the incident in detail. I just remember that we were living in Khushhal Khan area (PD-5). One day, around 12:00 noon, one of my friends whom I met on the street told me that my father had gone to Mazar-e-Sharif in Balkh Province. I was surprised and did not understand why he would have left so suddenly and without informing us. Once home, I felt the situation was different from normal. My family was consulting each other on whether or not they should listen to BBC Radio, as it could have been considered a crime by the regime. The People’s Democratic Party of Afghanistan (PDPA) hated the broadcasting corporation and could warrant arrests or even eliminate those identified as listening to the radio. I then realized that my father was taken by the PDPA intelligence service.

My family did everything to find information and searched through every possibility. They went to the Ministry of Interior Affairs, the Pul-e-Charkhi Prison and Detention Center, and many other places to find him but he was nowhere to be found. We suffered a lot because we had no one to support us. Despite being a child, I had to work after school. I used to make and sell paper bags in Kabul’s streets, earning just 40 cents per day. It took many years for my brother to finish his military service and go to Pakistan where he joined an NGO working for Afghan refugees. Together, it was easier to support the family. With the onset of the civil war in Kabul between Mujahideen groups, we had to leave Kabul and go back to Malistan, where we lived for almost 20 years. In 2010, we were able to come back to Kabul. I hope the day never comes that we become displaced again and leave everything behind.

From the day my father was arrested, I have many unanswered questions. Where is my father? Why was he arrested? What was his crime or fault? Who is responsible or accountable for such countless massacres and disappearances? Whenever I visit the Polygon area of Pul-e-Charkhi Prison, I ask myself whether my father is among the thousands who were executed there for no reason.

Place of Incident: Shashdarak, Kabul

On April 30, 2018, I lost my 58-year-old husband. It happened just a few weeks after he had been recruited as a driver for the Afghanistan National Radio and Television. On the day of the incident, my daughter and I were at home. In the morning, I called him many times, but he did not pick up his phone. I switched the T.V. on and learned that a suicide attack had happened in Shashdarak area. I was worried so I called him again. Everyone in the family kept calling him but no one picked up. Later, his brother called us from Wazir Akbar Khan Hospital and informed us that Abedin had been killed in the suicide attack.

I will never be able to forget that day. Everyone among the family and relatives gathered for the funeral and shared their condolences. Abedin was buried in Kolangar Village of Logar Province where he was born. As a young man, he had finished his school but was unable to attend university due to poverty and lack of support. I was only 18-years-old when we got married. Abedin was kind and caring. We loved each other and we lived together for 15 years. In that time, we made of a lot of good memories. We have a daughter together, Hasana, who is now studying third grade at school. Hasana cried for three months asking for her father.

His death took our happiness away. Without him life is hard, as I did not just lose my husband but also our only breadwinner. I went through difficult times and faced numerous problems. We were living in Khair Khanna when he was alive but had to move to Chehil Sutun to live with my uncle’s family. I had to work to support my only daughter.

According to our traditions, I had to give my husband’s belongings to charity. I added the very few remaining objects to the Memory Box to keep his memories alive. There is no law to punish those who kill innocents. I only pray to God to do justice and punish them for their crimes.

Abdul Jalil was only 38-years-old when he was killed. He had gotten married just a few years back and left behind his young wife and a three-year-old son who are now living with us. His wife is now suffering from depression since his death. Abdul Jalil was the only breadwinner of his family. I do everything I can to take care of and protect his son but he still feels his father’s absence. The older he gets, the more he feels the void. It will probably take him a very long time to accept his father’s death. I will always try to help and support them, but I don’t think I will ever be able to fill Abdul Jalil’s empty place. His death and absence will never be forgotten.

Victim’s Name: Rabb Khan

Date of the Incident: August 7, 2015

Place of the Incident: Sarai Ahmadzai, Shah Shaheed, Kabul

We lost our mother when we were very little. My father was a kind, supportive, and caring man. He struggled a lot to provide us with a living and to make us not feel our mother’s absence. Unfortunately, after three years of hard work, his legs were paralyzed. Despite my brother doing all he could for his treatment and taking him to Pakistan with borrowed money, he did not recover and passed away in Pakistan.

My brother Rabb Khan, who was only 16-years-old, had to take over my father’s job as a night guard in Shah Shaheed area to take care of us. He would guard the market from early morning to 1:00pm every day and then his assistant would take over.

One day, after finishing his shift, he returned to his room when a huge explosion occurred and destroyed the entire market. His assistant said that he had been blown away and everything had gone dark. When he returned to the building to look for Rab Khan and his guest in the room, he found them both dead because the entire building had crumbled into dust.

I felt very sad that night and could not sleep until very late. I only came to know the next day that Rabb Khan had been killed in what was a suicide attack. I felt like the world had ended for me; everything had turned grey and I could not stand on my feet. But I had to stay strong to take care of my nine younger siblings. Since there was no better job out there, I had to continue and replace my late brother in his job. I bore the anger, difficulties, and misbehaviors of others or else my family would go hungry.

My brother was only 22-years-old when he was killed. I added his remaining belongings to the Memory Box to keep his memories alive and to let everyone know that war destroys families and that by killing their breadwinners, it kills the entire family.

I lost my brother, Abdul Mateen, and nephew, Shirin Agha, in the Shah Shahid incident on 7 August 2015. At the age of 32 and 23-years-old, they were both the only breadwinners of their families. They had rented a room in Sarai Ahmadzai to be able to work and live in Kabul. Mateen was married and had two daughters of fourteen and eight-years-old. Shirin Agha was working with the Afghan National Army and due to the work load, had not been able to visit his mother and two sisters for a very long time. As he finally got some free time during the first weekend after Eid, he decided to visit his uncle on the Thursday, his family on Friday, and then get back to work on Saturday.

Unfortunately, his plans were left unfulfilled. I rushed to the Shah Shahid area after the explosion that Friday and found their room crumbled to dust.

Shirin Agha was working with the Ministry of Defense so his body was taken to Sardar Dawood Khan Military Hospital and then delivered to us. My nephew was appreciated for his work with the Afghan Military but we did not even get a mere condolence message for losing Mateen. The government has disappointed and failed us not only in preventing violence and terror, but also in supporting and caring for the victims.

With them, we buried part of our lives and happiness. I added the few objects they left behind to the Memory Box to let their memories live for longer and to let others know how war and violence is killing and destroying.

Victim’s Name: Mohammad Taher

Date of Incident: 2001-2013

Place of Incident: Maidan Wardak

My husband was shot dead five years ago during the Karzai government. He couldn’t work alone due to sickness, so he decided to work with his cousin in Ghazni Province. On the way, in Maidan Wardak, their vehicle was attacked by the Taliban and he was shot in the head. When they brought his body, I could not bring myself to see his face. I only saw his blood-soaked coffin.

He was a daily laborer so he somehow managed to relieve me of the breadwinning burden. Once he was gone, I had to bear all the sadness and misery of life, as well as make a living for my three children who were just three, one-year-old, and the last was born after his father was martyred.

We are currently living in an old rented house. It scares me but there is nothing I can do about it. I have suffered worse in my life. I lost my father and my younger brother when I was just a teenager. When I got married, I lost my father and brothers in-law during Dr. Najibullah’s rule. I do not know whom I should tell about the loss of my loved ones and ask for help. We are living in severe poverty but no one has ever asked about our living conditions, even though it is unrealistic to expect any help for the widows or orphans in this society.

Place of Incident: Darulaman Road, Kabul

I was at home when the explosion occurred. Muhammad Sadiq was swinging when his sister asked him to get her children from school. As they were walking on the pavement, Sadiq noticed a truck carrying six big gas containers getting closer. A few meters after the truck passed them, it turned toward the old parliament building and exploded. The explosives attached to the gas canisters killed and injured dozens of people. Saima’s hand and leg were cut off and we couldn’t find her leg. The shrapnel had pierced her younger brother’s abdomen, extruding his intestines and kidney. Mohammad Sadiq had pushed his nephew in the street gutter to save his life. He then managed to walk to a blacksmith and asked him to take his nephew out of the gutter. Though Sadiq lost his life due to major burns, he saved his nephew’s life that day.

I took them to Istiqlal Hospital. My son, Sadiq, was transferred to the burn injuries section and my grandson was in my arms as I held his kidney and intestines in my hand. First the doctors refused to admit him, but when he opened his eyes and started moaning, they realized he was alive and took him to the emergency section for surgery. The surgery took three days to complete. When we took my son and nephew to the hospital, we found Saima missing. Everyone started looking for her until we found her body in the Forensic Medicine Department. It was difficult to identify her because her entire body had been burned and injured by shrapnel. One of her legs had been cut off, which we never found.

My son was alive for five days but had difficulty breathing because of major burns. When we were at the mosque for Saima’s funeral, Sadiq passed away in the hospital. We buried Sadiq on the 5th of Ramadan, just a few days after Saima. He was only 27-years-old when he was killed. He was our only breadwinner and was working as a freelance tailor. He used to buy fabrics to sew clothes and distribute in the market. He was married and left behind a daughter and a young wife who are now living with us. I gave his belongings to charity but left a few objects which I have decided to add to the Memory Box to keep his memories alive.

Victim’s Name: Abdul Hashim

Place of Incident: Siasang Shah Shahid, Ahmadzai Market, Kabul

Date of Incident: 06 August 2015

Abdul Hashim was only 23 when he was killed. He was my son in-law, but he was much more than that to me. I had raised him after he lost his mother in childhood. He was my son too. I did all that I could to raise him to be a good and useful person in our society. He was a calm, peaceful, and faithful person. On the night of the incident, he finished work and went to a wedding he was invited to, where he was until midnight. At the exact moment he returned to his home at the Ahmadzai market to sleep, a suicide-bomber detonated his truck at a nearby army camp. It destroyed the entire market. Hashim was killed, along with 14 others. More than 280 people were injured in this incident.

When Hashim was killed, I had to take care of my daughter and her two-year-old child. I also have to support my widowed sister, who is living in a tent in my backyard with her children, and I support my mother. They have no one else to protect or to support them. Whatever I earn, I share with everyone at home so that we can survive. We are all suffering.

My daughter has had mental disorders since her husband was killed. She is always sad, and she is suffering from anemia. She and her child live a hard life. I do all I can for them, but I have little to offer as I was disabled during the civil war in 1993.

The government has done nothing for us despite the fact that I went to different government offices for support. I asked them to come and visit my home to see the conditions of the victims’ families, but no one from the government ever bothered to come and check. It is disappointing.

Description of incident

Hedayat was imprisoned for six months. Then we were told that they would release him in exchange for 350,000 Afghani. I did my best to find the money. I sold our house. I borrowed money from my brother and took money from people, promising to pay the money back with interest. I finally gathered the money and paid the authorities. They promised to release him the following Sunday but several Sundays passed without his release. After forty days, I went there again and asked two guards, Shah Wali and Mudir Abdurraham, whether Hedayat would be released today. They said that they did know now and asked me to wait. Shortly after, the gate was opened and a body was brought out on a footstool. I thought that someone had fainted but it was Hedayat’s body. I began to scream and curse at everyone and threw away my chadari. I was totally out of my mind.

A Story of Never Ending Pain

Narrator: Nargis

Victim’s Name: Sakhidad Hedayat

Date of Incident: November 22, 1999

Location of the Incident: Kabul City

If there had been no war, Nargis could have been one of the happiest women on earth. She is a strong and good woman, full of courage and determination. In spite of all the difficulties that she has faced, she always has a smile on her lips. At the same time, she is dejected and disillusioned by all the things that happened to her over the years: successive displacements, homelessness, and most of all, the death of her husband, Sakhidad. When the Taliban arrested him, she was forced to sell her house in order to bribe the Taliban to release Sakhidad, but all she received in return was his dead body. She alone had to transport the corpse all the way from the eastern part of Kabul to Dasht-e-Barchi. Since then, her life seems like a never ending journey of suffering, in which Nargis plays the role of both father and mother for her five children for whom she hopes that a better tomorrow will eventually arrive.

The Story of Nargis

My name is Nargis and I am 40-years-old. I live in Dasht-e-Barchi. I am originally from Bamyan Province. When we lived in Bamyan, we had a decent life as my father in-law had a great deal of land. My husband Sakhidad, known as Hedayat, was the only son of his family. When the Taliban attacked Bamyan, they looted our properties and we were displaced to Kabul. We had to walk all the way and my youngest child was only 40-days-old. Once in Kabul, my husband opened a shop in Sar-e Kariz. However, some people did not like my husband and reported to the Taliban that he was a member of the opposition.

The Taliban came and arrested him in May 2000. When we learned that he had been arrested, my cousin searched everywhere but could not find him. After four days, we came to learn that he had been detained in Department No. 11 but that no one was allowed to meet him. He was first taken to the Intelligence Department and then to Department No. 6 where he was detained for six months.

We know that the Taliban tortured him daily without giving him any food. When my cousin tried to deliver food for him, he was not allowed to meet my husband.

One day, I was sitting at home when my cousin came. It was early morning and I was very worried that something might have happened to Hedayat. When I saw him, I was full of fear because he usually did not visit us in the morning. He held a letter in his hand and told me not to worry. He said that Hedayat had sent a letter through the ICRC and that we were now ensured that he was alive and where he was held captive.

After a great deal of effort, I found out that Mawlawi Abdul Haq was the director of Department No. 3. I asked him to give me permission to visit Hedayat in prison and after paying him a huge amount of money, he allowed me to meet my husband. From then on, every two weeks my youngest son and I visited him in prison, even though sometimes the Taliban made excuses and denied us entry. Every time we went to the prison, I prayed to be granted permission to see my husband. Every time I went to see him, I had to walk all the way from Cinema Pamir to Department No. 3 with my child in my arms and food and clothes in my hands, hoping to meet my husband. Every time I saw him, he gave me little gifts for the children.

Hedayat was imprisoned there for six months. Then we were told that they would release him in exchange for 350,000 Afghani. I did my best to find the money. I sold our house. I borrowed money from my brother and took money from people, promising to pay the money back with interest. I finally gathered the money and paid the authorities. They promised to release him the following Sunday, but several Sundays passed without his release. After forty days, I went there again and asked two guards, Shah Wali and Mudir Abdurraham, whether Hedayat would be released today. They said that they did know now and asked me to wait.

Shortly after, the gate was opened and a body was brought out on a footstool. I thought that someone had fainted but it was Hedayat’s body. I began to scream and curse at everyone and threw away my chadari. I was totally out of my mind.

I was running around like mad until I found a taxi. I told the taxi driver to take us home. He accepted and put my husband’s body inside the car. When my brothers saw me in the car, they thought that Hedayat had been released. They all came to my home. I told them that the Taliban had informed me that Hedayat was dead but I still thought that he might be unconscious.

I asked my brothers to fetch a doctor. He eventually came and said that Hedayat had passed away a long time ago. We then buried him in Tap-e Shuhada.

When my husband died, he was 33-years-old and I was 28. We had nothing left at home as I had sold everything to pay for the release of Hedayat. We had five children and my oldest son was only 10-years-old, with the youngest no older than 8 months. After my husband’s death, we had a very hard life. No one helped us. We lived in a tent as no one was willing to rent out his home to a widowed woman. I was indebted and the government did nothing to address my suffering.

Today, no one listens to our stories of sadness. I voted for Karzai to help the victims’ families but he has done nothing so far. I also voted during the parliamentary elections, hoping that the Members of Parliament would do something for us but they have not done anything either. As soon as they reach a position of power, they forget us. They just make vague promises and then do nothing. No official has ever asked us about our problems or listened to us.

Earlier, I used to receive 300 Afghani. This year, they have removed the names of my sons from the list of beneficiaries.

My husband’s most valuable souvenirs are his five children. The most important object that he left for us is his blanket. It is the same blanket with which we covered his coffin. Another object is the letter that he sent us from prison, as well as some gifts that he had given us. Most importantly, I have kept the veil that he gave me for our wedding ceremony. Finally, there are some photos and clothes of him that help me to always remember him.

I have included these objects in my Memory Box so as to make my husband’s memory live forever. I wanted to share his story with the wider public. I also hope that in the future, the government will use these objects to build a museum so that the people become aware of the pain and suffering our county has endured, and to finally learn how to live in peace.

Witness/Survivor Statement

Hope Betrayed

Narrator: Mahnaz (daughter in-law)

Victim’s Name: Bibi Zulaikha

Date of Incident: 1997

Location of the Incident: Cinema Baharistan, Karte Pawan, Kabul

Periods of war are possibly the worst chapter in the thick history book of humankind. Generally, nothing affects the human spirit more then when the blood of a fellow being is innocently shed. But for some people, these moments of terrible violence increase their appetite for bloodshed and the killing of others turns into frenetic, orgasmic excitement. For these people, the hunger for destruction and looting never diminishes, eventually turning the taking of another person’s life into an almost daily routine. What is more, the mere act of killing no longer satisfies the murderers. Hence, they begin to resort to different forms of torture, thereby constantly transforming the nature of violence as violent conflict continues over time.

One of these tragic deaths is the one of Bibi Zulikha. At the time of her murder, she was 45-years-old and lived in Karte Parwan, Kabul. She was a kind mother and a reputable woman in the area. Everyone liked her and she was living a happy life with her family. Although she was concerned about the war and its consequences, she did not leave Kabul to take refuge in another place. She remained home hoping that the war would not come after her and her family. Unfortunately, things did not turn out that way.

One day, her house was destroyed and Bibi Zulikha was killed. The war between the Taliban and the government of Rabbani was intensifying when a rocket hit Bibi Zulikha’s house, painting the walls red with with her blood and flesh. Her tragic death severely shocked her family, particularly her younger son, who began suffering severe psychotic problems that are still ongoing.

The Story of Mahnaz

My name is Mahnaz and I am 27-years-old. During the war, I lost my mother in-law. She was at home when a rocket hit our house and killed her. My husband went to see what was going on and saw his mother’s head shattered and spread all over. This tragic incident severely affected my husband. Immediately after the mourning ceremony, we left Afghanistan. Today, my husband still suffers from mental problems. I can say that he lost control of his mind. This all happened after the death of his mother.

About The Futility of Using Words to Describe War

Narrator: Mah Jan

Victims: Abdurrafi, Abdul Wahid

Date of the incident: 1992-1996 (Estimated)

Location of the incident: Kabul City and Logar

War is full of irrationality. It causes deep injuries to the hearts of mothers and fathers, and makes them eternally grieve for their lost children. It takes away a happy and prosperous life and replaces it with pain and suffering. Afghanistan is the country of pain, torment, and injustice. Its people have become prisoners of the inhumane logic of violence. Here, horrendous atrocities have occurred one after another for many years in every corner of this country, subsequently breaking the spirit of its population and causing serious, unhealed wounds in people’s hearts. With every day that passes, more people lose their lives while the hope for a better future dies a painful death. Why is this happening to this beautiful country? The secret of this puzzle is yet to be found and the dark cloud that has cast its shadow over the population has yet to be removed.

The story of war in Afghanistan is the story of pain and suffering. One of the people who understands this intimately is Mah Jan. She is the perfect image of a war victim. She has lost everything and her mind is like an archive of the endless suffering of the Afghan people. An archive as thick as an encyclopedia that contains every existing story of war ever told.

Mah Jan could be considered the perfect and complete Afghan. She has experienced it all. Only people like her know exactly what tragedy means and what kind of life war brings about. Only people like her can distinguish whether war is something good or bad. She is the face of the Afghan people. She hardly speaks about her pain because she does not trust anyone is interested in listening to her. However, in the few moments when she does speak out, it is not just words that come out. Mah Jan takes you to another world where the word loses its intermediate role. She makes you encounter the naked truth. The words in her mouth lose their verbal nature and her entire body speaks with you. Her face of sadness reveals all the hidden secrets. There is not even a need for her to open her mouth. Her facial lines and languished hands, her hollowed eyes and crushed spirit, they all speak to you. She speaks in thousands of languages to tell you about her pain. The words are limited exclusively to express her suffering.

Her disturbed soul does not fit into the framework of words. In her speech, words do not connote any meaning beyond their most basic implications. Her story resembles the metaphor of the ‘speechless dreamer and the deaf.’ Neither is she capable of communicating her painful story nor do we have the ability to truly absorb it.

The Story of Mah Jan

My name is Mah Jan. During the war, I lost two of my sons, my husband, my brother in-law and a number of my cousins. I lost everything. I was living in Chehil Sutun, Kabul. Later we were displaced to Logar and Khair Kahan. We could not afford to leave the country. One of my sons was killed in Chehil Sutun and the other one in Logar Province. I had not seen the latter for three years when I was finally told to go to Logar to see him. I was taken to a cemetery and informed that my son was buried there. As I could not afford to transfer his body to another graveyard, I accepted for him to remain there.

My first son, Abdurrafi, was killed in 1997 and the second one was killed the following year. When I came back from Logar, we first moved to Shiwaki but later we returned to my home in Chehil Sutun, as I loved my home. When we moved back, we saw that nothing was left. Everything had been taken including the doors and windows. Apparently, the people from the checkpoint took them. It was during the Taliban time. One day, I decided to clean the home. I had yet to finish my cleaning when a rocket landed. I became worried about my son as I had just sent him out to buy some things. A few minutes later, my neighbor came and told me that my son had been injured and that I should go to the hospital. It was in the afternoon. I saw my older son on the street and he asked me what had happened. I told him that Abdul Wahid had been injured. He began to cry and the two of us went to the hospital in Allawoddin. As we entered the main corridor of the hospital, I saw a dead body. I stopped and uncovered his face. His shoes were placed under his head. I realized that it was my son. I cleaned his blood with my chadari and we took him home. It was late afternoon. The whole night I cried and cried. I lost two of my sons. Two months later my brother in-law was killed in Ghazni. He was working there. My husband buried his sons and brother. He was going every now and then to cry over their graves until he got paralyzed. For six years he could not move until he finally died. I took care of him. I washed him two times a week and gave him food every day. I lost two of my sons, my husband, and my brother in-law. A widowed woman married my third son and then they disappeared.

I never saw him again. I now have only one son with whom I currently live. He has a shop. Every day he works hard to feed us. I used to work in other people’s homes as cleaner and caretaker. I did all kind of work to support my family. My first son was 18 or 19-year-old when he was killed. The second was only 16-years-old. The younger one used to work in a shop and sometimes he collected food from the trash cans and brought it home for us to eat. After coming back to our home, we used to live in a home without doors and windows. We were in Chehil Sutun when the war intensified. There were checkpoints everywhere. Therefore, we went to Shiwaki.

My situation further deteriorated when my husband was handicapped after he suffered a paralysis. In his last days, I swear to God that we had nothing to eat. Once I cleaned the flour bag and prepared some bread for him. I mixed it with oil and put in his mouth. Now there are three people left in our home, my son, my daughter, and myself.

There are very few things left behind from my sons. An old shoe from my older son, which is very valuable to me. I have also kept his hat. One of my sons did not even have proper clothes. I am not lying. When he was killed, I bought 7 meters of fabric to cover his body. I took it everywhere but no one accepted to sew it. His clothes were full of blood. When the people took it, he was totally naked.

Witness/Survivor Statement

About Crime and Punishment

Narrator: Mah Parwar

Victim: Mohammad Shafi

Date of the incident: 1992-1996

Location of the incident: Kajsher, Jalalabad, Nangarhar

The nature of war is inherently unjust, unequal, and unfair. In war, one of the most problematic relationships is between crime and punishment. More often than not, people are punished without having committed any crime while those who took part in crimes are never called to account.

This sad fact is clear to almost everyone in Afghanistan and there is no need to consult the books of history to prove this. The destruction of Kabul city and the suffering of its residents are overwhelmingly evident even today, with both victims and perpetrators living side by side in this city formerly praised by kings and emperors for its immense beauty.

The truth is that committing crimes in Afghanistan has been a deeply rewarding endeavor, generally resulting in higher social status and admiration, effectively transforming the war criminal into a hero to be revered.

Committing crimes brings more wealth and prosperity. On the other hand, there are people who have been punished in spite of their innocence. It is a paradox. The ones who kill and create pain and destruction enjoy better, more affluent lives, proudly posing in their mansions full of expensive luxuries. The ones who have committed no crimes live under the bridge, on the streets, or in the ruins of their former homes, their children begging for a piece of bread. There are thousands of such stories, with many more secrets hiding under the broken skin of this decaying city. Each of those secrets tells a part of the “unjust situation”.

One of the most obvious examples of this “unjust situation” is the story of Mohammad Shafi. He is a person who quit his studies due to poverty and was forced to work in order to support his family. One day, he was killed on the way to Jalalabad without any apparent reason. Today, the death of Shafi remains a mystery to his family. What they know is that Shafi had nothing to do with other people’s dirty business. On the contrary, he was busy trying to put food on the table for his family when unknown people took him out of a vehicle on his way to Jalalabad. Shortly after, his dead body was sent home to his family. What crime did Shafi commit? What was he punished for? How long shall these forms of arbitrary punishment continue in the capital of Afghanistan? These are the questions that the people of this city ask themselves day after day.

So far, not one person in power has felt the need to answer these simple questions. In the meantime, crimes continue to go unpunished and the people’s dream for the sun of justice to finally rise are slowly withering away. One thing is certain: Something must be done and the campaign for the promotion of justice in Afghanistan should be accelerated and intensified. The Memory Box project is one small step towards the realization of this dream. It is an attempt to bring the victims of injustice to the center of attention when Afghanistan’s past, present, and future is being discussed. It is a step towards the prevention of further crimes and tragedies.

The Story of Mah Parwar

My name is Mah Parwar and I am 40-years-old. I live in Chehil Sutun, Kabul. Before the war, we used to live in Chardehi. I was 20-years-old when violence broke out. We did not have a good life at that time but it became even worse once my brother was killed.

One day, he told us that he would be going to Jalalabad to fetch spare car parts. Just before he left, we even joked about his trip. My brother loved jokes. We advised him not to go there but he insisted that he had nothing left to sell in his shop. He spent one night with my sister and her family in Waisal Abad and then went on to Jalalabad. We later learned that he was taken out of the car and killed in the Kaj Sher area of Jalalabad. The driver attempted to stop the murderers but failed. It was him who reported the murder of my brother to the 60th Battalion.

It was Eid night and my mother had gone to my uncle’s home. My mother told them that Shafi had gone to Jalalabad. They were soon informed that Shafi had been injured and was brought to the Chardehi mosque. My mother and uncle immediately went there but could not find him. They then went from hospital to hospital and eventually found his dead body in the Ali Abad hospital. I later went to my uncle’s home where I saw the dead body of my brother.

Description of incident

I can recall only that some people with their faces covered broke into our house and took my father away. They did not even let my father change his clothes and put on his shoes. After he disappeared, we did not know what happened to him. My mother searched everywhere but could not find him. We assume that Hizb-e Islami abducted him as they were against those working for the government of the time. I remember, it was almost midnight when we heard a knock on our door.

Witness/Survivor Statement

The Tearful Eyes of a Young Woman

Narrator: Karima

Victim: Hafiz

Date of the incident: 1992-1996

Location of the incident: Kabul City

Karima was very young when her father Hafiz was taken from home. At that time, no one knew what was going on. Suddenly, a number of people with their faces covered entered the house and took Hafiz. They did not even allow Hafiz to change his clothes and put on his shoes. Afterwards, the abductors never contacted Hafiz’s family; they remained in the dark about the reasons for his forced departure. Shortly after, the family came to know that the people who abducted Hafiz were from one of the Mujahidin groups. Hafiz’s only crime had been that he was working for the government. Today, his family still does not know what happened to Hafiz, but he never returned.

After Hafiz’s abduction, his family lived in absolute misery. His only son was forced to work during the early days of his childhood. His son later lost his sanity due to a number of serious psychological problems, while Karima’s mother suffered a heart attack during the time of the Taliban. As the Taliban banned treatment of female patients by male physicians, she later lost her life in the hospital. Karima was a witness to all these painful events.

She is now 30-years-old and never shows any signs of energy and happiness. She cannot stop crying. Karima got used to suffering from her early days. The endless cycle of violent incidents in her life has turned suffering into a routine experience. She does not know what she did to deserve this fate but strongly believes that she has suffered more than anyone else in this world. Are those who ignited the fire of war even thinking of the burned life of Karima? The Memory Box project aims to document stories of people like Karima and make them part of the official history of Afghanistan. The Memory Box project is a window into the lives of victims who tell their stories as they have experienced them. Without making an effort to look at the consequences of war through the lens of the victims, it will be difficult to truly grasp the hidden realities of war. Hence, we need to clean our eyes, look through their lens, and listen to their suffering and countless pains.

The history of Afghanistan has so far been written without the voices of the victims. These voices need to be heard. Stories like the one of Karima reflect but a small part of everything that Afghan victims have endured in recent decades.

The Story of Karima

My name is Karima and I am 30-years-old. I lost my father during the war. I was only 4-years-old when my father disappeared. I cannot remember it in detail. I can recall only that some people with their faces covered broke into our house and took my father away. They did not even let my father change his clothes and put on his shoes. After he disappeared, we did not know what happened to him. My mother searched everywhere but could not find him. We assume that Hizb-e Islami abducted him as they were against those working for the government of the time. I remember it was almost midnight when we heard a knock on our door.

My mother opened it and these masked men came in and took my father still dressed in his pajamas. There were people all over the house including on the roof. After his disappearance, we experienced a great deal of difficulties. My brother, who was in grade six at the time, had to start working to feed us. Soon after, he began to suffer from depression.

Today, he is absolutely mad but still asks for my father. He believes that my father is still alive. Later on, my mother died during the Taliban regime. This was the worst moment of my life (Karima cries). My mother was suffering from heart problems and later had a heart attack.

We took her to different hospitals but there was no female doctor. The Taliban had banned male physicians from treating female patients. As a result, my mother died in Jamhuriat hospital. I cannot forget these terrible moments in my life. Therefore, I hate the Taliban.

Today, I work and feed my family. My sister works as a teacher though she does not have a permanent contract. My sister, my sick brother and I live together. One of my other sisters lives in Mazar-e- Sharif.

I fully support the Memory Box initiative. I want to keep my father’s memory alive. I will not allow for him to be forgotten. Those who have killed my father must know that someone from his family is still alive and thinking of him. This initiative is dedicated to people like my dear father (Karima cries). People are telling me that I had a very handsome and kind father. My relatives told me they saw his Memory Box on TV. I am very pleased to see my father’s memories alive.

My son was only 18-years-old when he was taken to military service under Babrag Karmal’s rule. He was killed a year later. First, he used to serve in Kabul and then transferred to the Panjshir Valley. He spent two months there and was then killed. During a year of military service, he came home only once. He always reassured us that one day his service would end and he would come back home. Two days before his official end of service, he was killed. He was buried in Khaja Bughra before we even came to know about his death. Later, we opened his grave and saw him one last time.

A Wedding Ceremony That Never Took Place

Narrator: Kobra

Victim: Mohammad Sarwar

Date of the incident: 1979-1980

Location of the incident: Salang, Parwan

When war becomes widespread, no one is immune to it. War reserves a share for everyone and those who survive it have many stories to tell. What all these stories have in common is that they happened in a situation of absolute emergency.

In those times, nothing is normal and chaos reigns. At the same time, people’s pains and suffering are not fully equal. Similarities can be drawn but each victim of violence has their own distinctive story. Some are hurt because their children were killed, while others were subjected to forced displacement. Many are left behind without any support, suffering in solitude. War retains a different fate for different people.

The story of Mohammad Sarwar is that of all those young men and women whose wedding ceremony never took place. Mohammad Sarwar was 20-years-old when he was forcibly conscripted during the government of the last communist president, Dr. Najibullah. He was deployed to Panjsher Valley. There he served for a year and later came back home to spend his holidays with his family. During the visit, Sarwar got engaged. He happily returned to military duty hoping to come back soon and hold his wedding party. He even bought all the things needed for the ceremony. Exactly 20 days after he had reassumed his military duty, his family was informed of his death. It was shocking news for everyone. His father later fell off the roof of his house and remained severely handicapped for the rest of his life. Hence, his mother was forced to carry the pain of both her deceased son and her handicapped husband. Ever since, the death of her young son has occupied her entire being and she never again attended any wedding party of friends or family members as these reminded her of her son’s premature death.

The Story of Sarwar’s Mother

My son was only 18 years old when he was taken to military service under Babrag Karmal’s rule. He was killed a year later. He first served in Kabul and was later transferred to the Panjshir Valley. He spent two months there before he was killed. During a year of military service, he came home only once. He always reassured us that one day his service would end and he would come back home. Two days before his official end of service, he was killed. He was buried in Khaja Bughra before we even came to know about his death. Later, we opened his grave and saw him one last time.

The death of Sarwar has severely affected our lives as he was our only son and breadwinner. We have suffered a great deal and I have been crying for my son day and night ever since he died. For a while, my husband was able to work and sustain the family but he had to stop working 9 years ago due to old age. Now, we have no one to support us.

I still hold on to my son’s spoon and plate as well as his old blanket, a watch, and a ring. I have kept these objects to remember my son, especially the ring. When his clothes were returned to us after his death, his ring was attached to them.

A Mother's Vision Blurred by Death

Narrator: Farida

Victim: Qudrartullah

Date of the incident: 1987

Location of the incident: Kabul city, Deh-e Sabz

Farida’s brother in-law, Qudratullah, was an 18-year-old student living in the Chehil Suton area of Kabul when he was forcibly conscripted under the government of Dr. Najibullah. He was dispatched to fight the Mujahidin insurgents. In one of the battles between the Afghan army and the Mujahidin in Deh Sabz, Kabul, Qudratullah was killed. Qudratullah was the fourth son of his family. Even while he was still at school, he was financially supporting them through part-time work. He wished to become an engineer but war and violence did not allow for his dream to come true, instead shattering the life of his entire family.

His death was costly for his mother more than anyone else. The death of her young son opened up a deep wound that severely damaged her spirit. For a long time, day in and day out, his mother cried and mourned. She could not accept that Qudratullah was gone and would never come back. The constant crying eventually began to blur her vision. The world had come to an end for her and nothing would ever change that. Naturally, the death of Qudratullah also had a deep impact on his father. His father was already old and frail, but the death of his young son further damaged his body and soul. Unlike his wife, he did not carry his pain on the outside but he gradually lost his capacity to work and soon passed away.

As a result, poverty and hunger overcame the family. Later, the family of Qudratullah yet again suffered from the violence of war when their home was destroyed by a rocket attack and they were forcibly displaced. Today, after years of suffering, they managed to return to a life remotely resembling normalcy. Yet, the horrors of war continue to cast a huge, disturbing shadow over them.

The Story of Farida

My name is Farida. I am 40-years-old. I live in Chehil Sutun where we have spent the past 20 years. We did not have a good life at the time my brother in-law Qudratullah was killed, in 1988.

He was killed during the fighting between the forces of Dr. Najibullah and the Mujahidin. He was 18-years-old and in 12th grade when he was conscripted into the army to fight the insurgents. One day, somebody came and informed us that Qudaratullah had been injured and that he was in a hospital nearby. We quickly ran to the hospital, but it was too late. We took his dead body and buried him in Chehil Sutun.

Another brother-in-law of mine, Hayatullah, was also handicapped during the war. After heavy fighting broke out in the capital, we were displaced to Logar province where we lived in a tent for a while. When we finally came back to Kabul, our house was completely destroyed as a result of the fighting among various Mujahidin factions. We then migrated to Iran because of the Taliban, and only returned home after their regime had collapsed.

Upon arrival, we were told that the government would provide us with a new home and land. Yet so far, nothing has been given to returnees and the families of the victims. The government must provide some form of support to the returnees. If not, how will they survive? People have lost everything during the war. I have a handicapped brother-in-law. I have daughters and a son and we are poor. Most importantly, the memories of our loved ones should be preserved and respected. Their memories should serve as a lesson for others.

Description of incident

In Maidan Wardak Province's Bihsud areas, Zawar Ali was a well-known cleric. Despite his considerable social impact, he was neither politically nor militarily affiliated with any political or militia factions vying for supremacy across the nation. When the Taliban seized control of Kabul in the middle of 1996 and advanced on Hazarajat, Zawar Ali traveled there on behalf of his people to engage in peace talks with the Taliban. The Taliban were not prepared to listen to him, so they imprisoned and then killed him.

The Girl Who Took on The Role of Her Father

Narrator: Alia Azimi

Victim: Zawar Ali, son of Sher Mohammad

Date of the incident: 1996

Location of the incident: Markaz-e Behsod, Maidanwordak

Alia was only 10-years-old when her father was killed. Her father was a clergy member with a great deal of influence at the local level. He was known as a peace-loving person and thoroughly rejected the notion of war as a means to resolve conflict. Not only did he not participate in any war, but he actively tried to prevent people from resorting to any form of violence. In his view, war was the source of destruction and brutalities, hence unjustifiable both from religious and rational perspectives. According to him, no society could ever be built by war, which is why he actively carried out campaigns against war by reciting verses of the Quran and conducting religious rituals.

When the Taliban attacked the Hazarajat region of Afghanistan, Alia’s father once again tried to raise the flag of peace. He gathered the local elders and other influential people to negotiate a settlement with the Taliban. They literally raised a white flag as they approached them. But the Taliban paid no attention to their call for peace and did not even allow them to put forward their requests. On the contrary, they fired and killed all of them including Alia’s father. Later, his body was found with his ring finger cut off.

Alia’s father left behind four daughters and a son. Alia was the eldest of them. Naturally, none of them were old enough to work in order satisfy their basic human needs. Later, during the patriarchal regime of the Taliban, it was almost impossible for women and girls to work outside the house. As a result, Alia and her sisters suffered a great deal as they had no regular income and were trapped in chronic poverty. Eventually they migrated to Pakistan, where they worked in a carpet factory. They used the money they earned to go to Iran, where they spent a few years before returning to Afghanistan. Alia’s sisters got married and so did her brother, while Alia assumed the role of her father, giving Quran lessons to meet her and her mother’s financial needs.

The Story of Alia

My father went to negotiate a peace agreement with the Taliban when they shot and killed him, along with my uncle. Some of the people from the area had begun to fight the Taliban in order to defend themselves and their properties. Other people fled the area as they were fearful of them. Some women even left their children behind and escaped the area without them. Most of the younger people finally left as well, and only the elders remained.

The war soon spread everywhere and we were forced to migrate to Pakistan where we worked in a carpet factory for a while. Then we went to Iran, where my uncle paid for our expenses. My sisters and I went to school there. My brother got a job. When my three sisters eventually got married and returned to Afghanistan with their husbands, I joined them too. Later, my brother got married as well. After the wedding, he and his wife did not stay with us, which affected my mother a great deal. Now, my mother does not have a happy life.

There are only a few things that remain from my father. I would like to include one of his books, a ring, and an overcoat for the Memory Box project. I am including all these things so that the officials and people know that we have not forgotten our loved ones. When the first Memory Box exhibition took place, I was excited to stand next to my father’s box, tell his story, and share my pain with my fellow countrymen and women.
