Internal Displacement Updates ANNEXE 1 CONFLICT INDUCED INTERNAL DISPLACEMENT Monthly Update January 2012 The trend on increasing conflict-induced internal displacement continued through January 2012 with the displacement of an estimated 6,594 persons (1,104 families) across the country. As compared to December 2011, this is a decrease of 50%. The data shows an increase in reporting of IDPs in the West which is a significant high (82%), while the Eastern region remained the same as last month. No significant displacements were reported from the South-east. No internal displacement was reported from the South, North and Central regions in January. The main causes of displacement are recorded as armed conflict between Anti Government Elements AGE/ Armed Opposition Groups AOG, IM/ANA; Intimidation/ threats/ harassment by AGEs; Tribal conflict and targeted persecution. The total IDP population in the country is estimated at 447,524 persons/ 70,209 families as of 31 January 2012. The data is gathered from UNHCR and DoRR sources and these estimates do not include IDPs scattered in urban and semi-urban areas as well as locations where UNHCR/ DORR/ IDP Task Force members do not have access. I. Key Protection and Assistance Needs: • Delay in identification, assessment and timely assistance (due to limited humanitarian access) remains a critical challenge; • Access to basic protection in displacement – i.e personal and physical security and shelter are critical needs; • Regular tracking of IDP caseloads is a challenge due to frequent secondary and tertiary displacements; • Livelihoods in displacement (esp for prolonged displacements) is a challenge and its absence can lead to secondary displacement; • Access to education and emergency health care (for all & also for prolonged displacement - including other services); • Tracking the vulnerability of already vulnerable persons/ families (migration of male members to urban areas for work, hence more female headed households). II. New Conflict-Induced Displacements reported in January 2012: (Some of the below figures are still in the process of verification) 1. Western Region: In January, the West recorded a noticeable increase in internal displacement of 917 families / 5,429 individuals due to conflict, insecurity and threats by AGEs in Ghor and Badghis provinces. a) Ghor: DoRR reported that due to conflict, insecurity and threats by AGEs 909 families/ 5,387 individuals were forced to leave their places of origin from Ghor (97%), Badghis and Maidan Wardak province. Currently, the displaced are settled in Tulak (50%), Charsada (33%), Chaghcharan (8%), Dolaina (6%) and Saghar (2%) districts of Ghor. Assessment of the situation of displaced families is pending due to lack of access and insecurity. b) Badghis: Due to threats and general insecurity, 8 families / 42 individuals were displaced from Moghol district to Qala-e-Naw centre of Badghis province. Assessment of the situation of displaced families will be conducted by DoRR Badghis. 2. Eastern Region: In January, 111 families / 619 individuals were displaced from Nuristan, Nangarhar and Kunar provinces due to AGE harassment and intimidation and due to the conflict. a) Nangarhar: 69 families / 390 individuals, displaced due to on-going conflict in Bargi Matal and Kamdish districts of Nuristan into Jalalabad, Bihsud, Surkhrod and Rodat districts in 1 ANNEXE 1 Nangarhar. Assessment of the situation of these families was jointly conducted by UNHCR/WFP/DoRR and their needs (F/NFIs) were responded by UNHCR and WFP. b) Due to AGE harassment and intimidation 06 families / 39 individuals were displaced from Nazar Khel village Lalpur district, to Mohmandara district of Nangarhar province. IRC provided family kits and WFP distributed food assistance. c) 02 families / 10 individuals were displaced due to AGE harassment and intimidation from Nazarkhel village, Lalpur district to Saiful Abad village, Goshta district in Nangarhar. They are now receiving winter assistance. d) 18 families / 103 individuals were forced to leave their place of origin from Badil village, Narang district of Kunar to Kuz Kunar district of Nangarhar. Reason for their displacement is reported as conflict between IM/ANA and AGEs. e) Laghman: due to AGE harassment and intimidation, 16 families / 77 individuals were displaced from Qurach village, Mandol district, Nuristan to Mihterlam district of Laghman province. The most vulnerable (08 families) among the caseload were assisted with winterization by UNHCR as well as food support from WFP. 5. Un- Verified IDP caseloads (these caseloads are not included in January data): North: During the reporting period, UNHCR Mazar received reports of new IDPs in Mazar (185 families), Baghlan (38 families) and Jawzjan (77 families) provinces. The reasons for displacement were reported as insecurity, presence of AGEs, threats & intimidation and drought. Assessment of the situation of displaced families is planned to be conducted soon. More details will be provided at the next TF meeting. Central: Due to military operations in Alasay district, 31 families / 200 individuals originally from Welech, Sultan Khail and Shirdad Khail villages of Alasay district left their place of origin to Shakot, Dawankhail and Sharoka Khail village of Alasay district of Kapisa province. Assessment is planned. South-east: DoRR Paktya reported that due to increased intimidation and persecution by AGEs, 14 families / 78 individuals were forced to leave their places of origin from Jaji Aryoub and Jani Khail district to Gardez. An assessment of the situation of displaced families planned by UNHCR and DoRR. III. Solutions Achieved: a) Eastern Region: Following the assessment conducted by UNHCR IPs (APA and ASRCO) and DoRR for winterization assistance distribution, it was revealed that around 729 families/4,436 individuals who were displaced in 2011 due to the impact of cross border shelling, have returned to their places of origin. b) Northern Region: DoRR Jawzjan and district authorities have reported that an estimated 700 IDP families have returned from Sheberghan city to Qush Tippa district recently, as the security situation was reported to have improved in the area. UNHCR partner (NPO) is currently conducting an assessment of the situation in place of origin. More details will be shared following the assessment. c) Samangan: Amongst a group of IDPs (83 families) who were displaced in 2011 due to conflict and insecurity in Aybak centre, 56 IDP families have returned to their place of origin in Dar-e-Suf district of Samangan, while the remaining 27 families have reportedly bought land in Aybak and settled there hence the entire caseload is considered to have achieved a solution. UNHCR SOM is planned to conduct an assessment and needs verification in PoO soon. d) Faryab: Amongst a group of IDPs (1,000 families) who were displaced in Feb 2011 from Khuja Kinti village of Qaisar due to joint military operation in the area, 530 families have returned to their place of origin as per the head of the local Shura. Needs verification is pending due to insecurity and lack of access in PoO. UNHCR, Branch Office, Kabul, Afghanistan Tuesday, 07 February 2012 2.

  • Old Habits, New Consequences Old Habits, New Khalid Homayun Consequences Nadiri Pakistan’S Posture Toward Afghanistan Since 2001
    Old Habits, New Consequences Old Habits, New Khalid Homayun Consequences Nadiri Pakistan’s Posture toward Afghanistan since 2001 Since the terrorist at- tacks of September 11, 2001, Pakistan has pursued a seemingly incongruous course of action in Afghanistan. It has participated in the U.S. and interna- tional intervention in Afghanistan both by allying itself with the military cam- paign against the Afghan Taliban and al-Qaida and by serving as the primary transit route for international military forces and matériel into Afghanistan.1 At the same time, the Pakistani security establishment has permitted much of the Afghan Taliban’s political leadership and many of its military command- ers to visit or reside in Pakistani urban centers. Why has Pakistan adopted this posture of Afghan Taliban accommodation despite its nominal participa- tion in the Afghanistan intervention and its public commitment to peace and stability in Afghanistan?2 This incongruence is all the more puzzling in light of the expansion of insurgent violence directed against Islamabad by the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), a coalition of militant organizations that are independent of the Afghan Taliban but that nonetheless possess social and po- litical links with Afghan cadres of the Taliban movement. With violence against Pakistan growing increasingly indiscriminate and costly, it remains un- clear why Islamabad has opted to accommodate the Afghan Taliban through- out the post-2001 period. Despite a considerable body of academic and journalistic literature on Pakistan’s relationship with Afghanistan since 2001, the subject of Pakistani accommodation of the Afghan Taliban remains largely unaddressed. Much of the existing literature identiªes Pakistan’s security competition with India as the exclusive or predominant driver of Pakistani policy vis-à-vis the Afghan Khalid Homayun Nadiri is a Ph.D.

  • End of Year Report (2018) About Mujahideen Progress and Territory Control
    End of year report (2018) about Mujahideen progress and territory control: The Year of Collapse of Trump’s Strategy 2018 was a year that began with intense bombardments, military operations and propaganda by the American invaders but all praise belongs to Allah, it ended with the neutralization of another enemy strategy. The Mujahideen defended valiantly, used their chests as shields against enemy onslaughts and in the end due to divine assistance, the invaders were forced to review their war strategy. This report is based on precise data collected from concerned areas and verified by primary sources, leaving no room for suspicious or inaccurate information. In the year 2018, a total of 10638 attacks were carried out by Mujahideen against invaders and their hirelings from which 31 were martyr operations which resulted in the death of 249 US and other invading troops and injuries to 153 along with death toll of 22594 inflicted on Kabul administration troops, intelligence operatives, commandos, police and Arbakis with a further 14063 sustaining injuries. Among the fatalities 514 were enemy commanders killed and eliminated in various attacks across the country.

These elections were the first to be fully led and organised by the Afghanistan Independent Election Commission (IEC) and the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF) took the lead in providing security for the elections. It was also the first time that arrangements were made for prisoners and hospitalised citizens, to cast their votes. The steady increase of security-related incidents by Anti-Government Elements (AGEs) was a dominant factor in the preparation and holding of the elections. Despite commendable efforts from the ANSF, insecurity had a bearing on the decision of Afghans to participate in the elections Polling day recorded the highest number of attacks and other forms of intimidation for some 15 years.
