  • Schnellrecherche Der SFH-Länderanalyse Vom 23
    Schnellrecherche der SFH-Länderanalyse vom 23. August 2017 zu Afghanistan: Rekrutierung und Reflexverfolgung im Distrikt Khanabad, Provinz Kunduz Fragen an die SFH-Länderanalyse: Inwiefern laufen junge Männer in Khanabad/Kunduz Gefahr, durch die Tali- ban, IS/Daesh oder andere Gruppen rekrutiert zu werden? Welche Informationen gibt es über die Verfolgung von Familienangehörigen von Polizisten durch die Taliban, IS/Daesh oder andere Gruppen in Khana- bad/Kunduz? Die Informationen beruhen auf einer zeitlich begrenzten Recherche (Schnellrecher- che) in öffentlich zugänglichen Dokumenten, die uns derzeit zur Verfügung stehen, sowie auf den Informationen von sachkundigen Kontaktpersonen. 1 Aktuelle Präsenz der Taliban in Kunduz einschliesslich Khanabad Taliban sollen aktuell grosse Teile des Distrikts Khanabad sowie anderer Dis- trikte in der Provinz Kunduz kontrollieren, weitere Teile sind umkämpft. Laut einem Artikel des Long War Journal (LWJ) vom 9. Mai 2017 standen die Taliban zu diesem Zeitpunkt kurz davor, die Kontrolle über den Distrikt Khanabad wieder zu erlangen. Nach eigenen Angaben kontrollierten sie 80 Prozent von Khanabad ein- schliesslich des Distriktzentrums sowie grosse Teile von weit eren Distrikten in der Provinz Kunduz. Zwar seien die Angaben der Taliban bezüglich Gebietskontrolle schwierig zu bewerten. LWJ hält sie allerdings für glaubhaft. Darüber hinaus unter- schieden sie sich nicht grundlegend von einer entsprechenden Einschätzung des US-amerikanischen Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR). Zuvor hatten die Taliban laut Reuters (20. August 2016) die Kontrolle über den Dis- trikt Khanabad im August 2016 erlangt. Im Oktober 2016 eroberten sie laut NYT (3. Oktober 2016) mehrere Quartiere im Zentrum der Provinzhauptstadt Kunduz. Bereits im Oktober 2015 gehörte Khanabad gemäss LWJ (13.

  • Geohydrologic Summary of the Balkhab Copper Area of Interest
    Chapter 4C. Geohydrologic Summary of the Balkhab Copper Area of Interest By Thomas J. Mack and Michael P. Chornack 4C.1 Introduction This chapter describes the geohydrology of the Balkhab volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) copper area of interest (AOI) in northern Afghanistan identified by Peters and others (2007). The AOI is located in the Balkhab district of the Sari Pul Province, the Kishindih district of Balkh Province, and the Dara-i-Suf district of Sam Angan Province in northern Afghanistan (fig. 4C–1a,b), and is centered about 130 km (kilometers) southwest of the city of Mazari Sharif and about 130 km northwest of the village of Bamyan. The Balkhab prospect subarea covers 321 km2 (square kilometers) of the 1,858-km2 AOI. Water is needed not only to process mineral resources in Afghanistan, but also to supply existing communities and the associated community growth that may accompany a developing mining economy. Information on the climate, vegetation, topography, and demographics of the AOI is summarized to provide information on the seasonal availability of, and seasonal demands for, water. The geohydrology of the AOI is described through the use of maps of streams and irrigated areas, generalized geohydrology and topography, and well locations. The results of lineament analyses are presented to identify areas where the rock may be more fractured than in other areas, which may be an indicator of high relative water yield and storage in bedrock aquifers. The results of field reconnaissance work conducted in the AOI by U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) minerals teams in November 2009 are described.

  • Extreme/Harsh Weather Weekly Situation Report, 1 February-12 March 2017
    HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE PROGRAMME EXTREME/HARSH WEATHER WEEKLY SITUATION REPORT, 1 FEBRUARY-12 MARCH 2017 Highlights 33 affected provinces 8,209 affected families reported 553 houses completely destroyed 2,282 houses severely damaged 501 houses partially damaged 202 individual deaths 127 individuals injured 3,439 affected families verified following assessments 1,998 families assisted by IOM Distribution of relief items to avalanche-affected families in Badakhshan on 21 February. © IOM 2017 Situation Overview Extreme weather conditions, including avalanches, floods, and heavy snowfall have affected 33 provinces of Afghanistan as of 3 February 2017. Badakhshan and Nooristan provinces were severely hit by two avalanches, resulting in causalities and destruction of houses, followed by flash floods on 18 February that significantly impacted Herat, Zabul and Nimroz provinces. An estimated 8,209 families were reportedly affected across Afghanistan, with 202 deaths and 127 persons sustaining injuries across the country. The majority of the reported caseloads have been assessed, with a total 3,439 families in need of assistance, while the distribution of relief items is underway and expected to be completed by 15 March 2017. Snow and flash floods damaged major roads in Afghanistan, delaying assessments and the dispatching of relief assistance to affected families. Rescuers were unable to reach snow-hit districts in the north, northeast, central, central highland, west, and eastern regions. The majority of the highways and roads linking to various districts that were initially closed have since reopened; however, some roads to districts in Badakhshan, Nooristan, Daikundi, Bamyan and Paktika are still closed. IOM RESPONSE Northeast Region Badakhshan: At least 83 families were affected by avalanches triggered by heavy snowfall in Maimai district on 3 February 2017, with 15 persons killed and 27 wounded.

  • The Dissipation of Political Capital Among Afghanistan's Hazaras
    Working Paper no. 51 THE DISSIPATION OF POLITICAL CAPITAL AMONG AFGHANISTAN’S HAZARAS : 2001-2009 Niamatullah Ibrahimi Crisis States Research Centre June 2009 Crisis States Working Papers Series No.2 ISSN 1749-1797 (print) ISSN 1749-1800 (online) Copyright © N. Ibrahimi, 2009 24 Crisis States Research Centre The Dissipation of Political Capital among Afghanistan’s Hazaras: 2001-2009 Niamatullah Ibrahimi Crisis States Research Centre Introduction Since its establishment in 1989 Hizb-e Wahdat-e Islami Afghanistan (The Islamic Unity Party of Afghanistan) has been an important political and military player in Afghanistan. Like most contemporary major political parties in Afghanistan, Hizb-e Wahdat is rooted in the turbulent period of the anti-Soviet resistance movements in Afghanistan in the 1980s. It was formed to bring together nine separate and mostly inimical military and ideological groups into a single entity. During the period of the civil war in the early 1990s, it emerged as one of the major actors in Kabul and some other parts of the country. Political Islamism was the ideology of most of its key leaders but it gradually tilted towards its Hazara ethnic support base and became the key vehicle of the community’s political demands and aspirations. Its ideological background and ethnic support base has continuously shaped its character and political agenda. Through the jihad and the civil war, Wahdat accumulated significant political capital among Afghanistan’s Hazaras, which arguably could have been spent in the establishment of long-lasting political institutions in Afghanistan. By 2009, however, Wahdat was so fragmented and divided that the political weight it carried in the country bore little resemblance to what it had once been.
