  • Afghanistan Earthquake Information Bulletin No.1
    AFGHANISTAN: EARTHQUAKE 26 March 2002 Information Bulletin N° 1/2002 This Bulletin is being issued based on the information available at this time. The Federation is currently not seeking international assistance. However, depending on further updates and assessment reports, an appeal may be launched to assist the Afghan Red Crescent Society in its relief operation. The Situation A series of earthquakes - registering up to 6.2 on the Richter scale - struck the Nahrin district of Baghlan province in northern Afghanistan overnight. Unconfirmed reports put the death toll from 100 to as high as 1,800 people, with 5,000 people injured. It is also estimated that 10,000 people have been displaced and 4,000 houses destroyed. Nahrin, which has a population of 82,916, was reported to be 85% destroyed. The region is 160 km east of Mazar-i-Sharif over difficult terrain in the Hindu Kush. Red Cross/Red Crescent action The Afghan Red Crescent Society (ARCS) and International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies have made available a stock of relief items for dispatch with a UN convoy due to leave Mazar-i-Sharif later today. The stock - which includes tents, blankets, kitchen sets and jerry cans - is sufficient for 5,000 families. A Red Crescent health emergency mobile unit, equipped with medical supplies, is due to arrive in Nahrin later today. Because of the confusing nature of early reports, the team will not only provide immediate medical assistance but also verify the extent of the disaster in terms of numbers affected and most pressing needs.

  • Campaign Trail 2010 (2): Baghlan - Divided We Stand
    Campaign Trail 2010 (2): Baghlan - Divided we Stand Author : Fabrizio Foschini Published: 7 July 2010 Downloaded: 7 September 2018 Download URL: https://www.afghanistan-analysts.org/campaign-trail-2010-2-baghlan-divided-we-stand/?format=pdf Situated in a central position crossed by some of the most strategic road connections of the country, Baghlan province shows a high level of social and political fragmentation. The growing instability of the province does not bode well for the oncoming elections, and forecasts future problems for the government and the international forces in the area. With a total of 118 candidates (including 12 women) for just 8 seats in the Wolesi Jirga – only Kabul and Laghman have a similarly high proportion of contenders – Baghlan inhabitants could be easily mistaken for a population of election enthusiasts. However, these high numbers seem to reflect more the fault lines splitting local communities and political groups, which prevented the most basics accords between candidates to take place (*). Looking at past elections, high numbers of candidates are not a new development for Baghlan. In the parliamentary elections of 2005 there were 106, and the number of participants to last year’s provincial council elections is even more striking, reaching 193 candidates for the 15 seats body. Baghlan has been characterized for decades by a high number of different factions struggling to control this rich region’s economic assets and communication links and this is also reflected in the electoral competition. Baghlan is a rich province, with a flourishing agriculture blessed by the water resources of the Baghlan-Kunduz river system and by proximity and good road connections to markets like Kabul and Mazar-e Sharif.

Rouland Washington, D.C. 2014 ENGAGING THE WORLD The ENGAGING THE WORLD series focuses on U.S. involvement around the globe, primarily in the post-Cold War period. It includes peacekeeping and humanitarian missions as well as Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom—all missions in which the U.S. Air Force has been integrally involved. It will also document developments within the Air Force and the Department of Defense. GREAT GAME TO 9/11 GREAT GAME TO 9/11 was initially begun as an introduction for a larger work on U.S./coalition involvement in Afghanistan. It provides essential information for an understanding of how this isolated country has, over centuries, become a battleground for world powers. Although an overview, this study draws on primary- source material to present a detailed examination of U.S.-Afghan relations prior to Operation Enduring Freedom.

Ethnicity, Space, and Politics in Afghanistan Abstract The 2004 election was a disaster. For all the unity that could have come from 2001, the election results shattered any hope that the country had overcome its fractures. The winner needed to find a way to unite a country that could not be more divided. In Afghanistan’s Panjshir Province, runner-up Yunis Qanooni received 95.0% of the vote. In Paktia Province, incumbent Hamid Karzai received 95.9%. Those were only two of the seven provinces where more than 90% or more of the vote went to a single candidate. Two minor candidates who received less than a tenth of the total won 83% and 78% of the vote in their home provinces. For comparison, the most lopsided state in the 2004 United States was Wyoming, with 69% of the vote going to Bush. This means Wyoming voters were 1.8 times as likely to vote for Bush as were Massachusetts voters. Paktia voters were 120 times as likely to vote for Karzai as were Panjshir voters.
