IEA: Tajik and Pakistani nationals were involved in Daesh attacks in Afghanistan

 

“This (Daesh) project has no roots and results in Afghanistan. The designers and sponsors of this project should understand this fact. After the Islamic Emirate came to power, all the attacks on mosques, khanqahs, religious scholars and public gatherings in Afghanistan involved foreigners, especially Tajik nationals. Dozens of Tajik citizens have been killed as a result of the operation of our security forces, and dozens more have been captured alive,” Mujahid said.

 

He added that in the second place, Pakistani nationals were involved in the attacks and more than 20 Pakistani citizens were killed and hundreds were arrested in operations.

 

He called on countries not to let “evil elements” enter Afghanistan through their soil.

 

“We seriously ask the countries through which foreign evil elements enter Afghanistan to seriously control their land and air borders and not allow evil elements to enter Afghanistan through them.”

 

The Acting Minister of Defense also said that “domestic and foreign tendentious circles” seek to cause concern among countries about Afghanistan.

 

“For these tendentious circles, producing false information has become a business, they want to gain political and material concessions and reach their sinister goals,” Mujahid said.

 

According to him, the United Nations and especially the Security Council have been seduced by false information.

 

Mohammad Yaqub Mujahid also denied the claims that the military equipment left by the previous government have fallen to the armed groups.

 

“Weapons, ammunition and military equipment left from the previous administration in Afghanistan are safe and in responsible hands. The claims that this weapon fell into the hands of some groups are not true and are pure propaganda,” Mujahid said.
