In the invasion of the Soviet Union forces, more than one million people, including 90 thousand Mujahideen, more than 20 thousand security forces and a large number of civilians were killed. This war took the lives of 14 thousand Soviet soldiers.
Ahmad Fawad Niazi, a political expert, told AVA that the Soviet Union's invasion of Afghanistan caused the continuation of the war, the destruction of infrastructure and the ground for countries to intervene in Afghanistan's affairs.
Black day for the people of Afghanistan, he added that after the invasion of the Soviet Union 1358 SH, the people of Afghanistan did not see a good day anymore, the infrastructure of Afghanistan was destroyed, millions of people became disabled and immigrated.
This political informant also had the means that the cause of all the problems and disorders during the last forty-four years in Afghanistan is rooted in the Soviet Union's invasion of our country, because the Soviet Union destroyed the administrative system, infrastructure and order in the society.
Mr. Niazi emphasized: When the Soviet Union took control of Afghanistan and the communist military took over, every "Afghan" raised his voice or was imprisoned or destroyed by the intelligence department.
At the same time, Asadullah Safdari, a religious scholar, also told AVA that when the Soviet forces entered Afghanistan, they attacked the religious and cultural values of the people and started imprisoning and killing religious scholars.
