  • 16 September 2010
    SIOC – Afghanistan: UNITED NATIONS CONFIDENTIAL UN Department of Safety and Security, Afghanistan Security Situation Report, Week 37, 10 - 16 September 2010 JOINT WEEKLY SECURITY ANALYSIS The week recorded a further decrease in the overall number of incidents with only the WR recording an increase, while the rest of the regions recording decreased or relatively consistent incident levels. This overall decrease is assessed to be a result of Eid celebrations, which continued for the first three days of the week, as well as AGE’s focus mainly on the elections and related activities and preparation for the offensive on the Election Day. This was manifested in the dramatic increase recorded in the election- related incidents. Lack of visibility in the SR, particularly in Hilmand is another factor contributing to the low numbers recorded in the region. Kunduz remained volatile in the NER, followed by Badakhshan mainly due to increased demonstrations. In the NR violence, mainly connected to the elections, was spread in most of the provinces. In the WR, Farah was the center of focus with increased IED incidents and Kandahar in the CR with a focus of AGE activity in Kandahar City. Uruzgan Province remained susceptible to AGE activity. The decrease in the SER was visible in the whole regions except for Paktika as a result of increasing attacks against the newly deployed surge troops. Kunar Province was the center of AGE activity with over 80% of all the incidents in the region. In the CR, Logar and Wardak remained the most active districts and together accounted for 70% of all the incidents.

  • Daily Situation Report 31 October 2010 Safety and Security Issues Relevant to Sssi Personnel and Clients
    Strategic SSI - Afghanistan DAILY SITUATION REPORT 31 OCTOBER 2010 SAFETY AND SECURITY ISSUES RELEVANT TO SSSI PERSONNEL AND CLIENTS STANDING THREAT ASSESSMENT (KABUL): Threat reports continue to indicate that insurgents aspire to conduct coordinated attacks in Kabul City, as such the threat remains extant. Recent threat reporting has also indicated likely reconnaissance of areas and businesses frequented by members of the international community. Although no significant attacks were carried out in Kabul during the recent parliamentary election, or indeed after the event, the recent reduction in physical security in the city may provide insurgents with exploitable opportunities to carry out attacks. Suicide and complex attacks remain the preferred choice for insurgents in order to gain maximum casualties figures and the associated high degree of media attention. It remains possible that insurgents will still seek to undermine the democratic process by conducting high profile attacks when the final results are announced at the end of October. It remains prudent for international agencies in the Kabul area to maintain a high degree of security vigilance. Sporadic IDF attacks in the city centre are to be expected. Any attacks are likely to consist of between one and four 107 mm rockets launched towards the city centre. Incidents of intimidation, executions by insurgents and targeting of government officials are increasing throughout the country. It seems to be a form of revenge by insurgents as they have lost more than 300 insurgent commanders over the past few months due to successful IM/ANSF operations.

  • Groundwater Natural Resources and Quality Concern in Kabul Basin, Afghanistan
    Groundwater natural resources and quality concern in Kabul Basin, Afghanistan Scientific Investigation Report in Afghanistan By: M. Hassan Saffi, Hydro geologist Edited by: M.Naim Eqrar Professor of Geosciences faculty, Kabul University June 2011 Paikob-e-Naswar, Wazirabad, PO Box 208, Kabul, Afghanistan Phone: (+93) (020) 220 17 50 Mobile (+93) (0)70 28 82 32 E-mail: [email protected] Web site: www.dacaar.org i Abstract Historical groundwater level and water quality data in Kabul Basin were reviewed and compared with the data collected recently. The results suggest that the groundwater quality and water level have been improved progressively with urban development, land use, climate change, socio - economic development and frequent drought events. The main impact of these events include; 1) most of the springs and karezes have dried up; 2) decreased annual precipitation; 3) increased serious deterioration of water quality; 4) increased water logging and salinization; 5) declining of water level in excess of recharge trend; 7) increased evaporation and; 6) marshes dried up in several areas of the Basin, leaving salt crust at the surface. The above impacts have resulted in the replacement of surface water by groundwater resources to support socio-economic development. This, however, is basically not possible because of low thickness and productivity of the aquifers. We have done very little to tackle water quality deterioration and serious lowering of the groundwater level due to fragmented institutional arrangements and poor formulation of effective water policies, strategies and regulation for integrated groundwater resources management, development, protection and sustainability. Groundwater natural reserves have been depleted and water quality has deteriorated due to over-exploitation.
