This year's edition comprises four separate volumes: I Location - Province /District II Sector III Agency Iv `Summary of the database and covers activities that were either ongoing through 1996, started in 1996 or new programmes established since then. All volumes contain a separate section for programmes in Afghanistan and for Refugees in Pakistan. They provide a compilation of the activities of some 220 Non -Governmental organizations (NGOs) working for Afghanistan. Whilst most agencies are Peshawar -based, activities are also reported for agencies located in Islamabad, Quetta and regional centres inside Afghanistan. The time and effort to produce this annual publication has been enormous. Whilst ACBAR is not in a position to confirm the information provided, I am confident that this publication provides an excellent picture of the work being undertaken by the NGO community for Afghans. I would also like to thank the agencies for providing the data; Mohammad Zakir, the main person in ACBAR behind all the work and other members of the Programme Department. They have all worked extremely hard to ensure this publication comes up to the usual high standards. We again hope that the users, the agencies themselves, the Afghan authorities as well as the Pakistan authorities and all others will find the details provided useful and informative. Finally,I am pleased to note that this is the first ACBAR publication to be printed by the ACBAR printing press. This press was taken over from the International Rescue Committee (IRC) in mid -December 1996. We are grateful for IRC's support in this and hope that this will be the first of many documents to be printed by ACBAR. Charles A MacFadden Executive Director February 1997 Will be published separately.

Projoc:t staff based in Peshawar and Quetta have corxlucted interviews and surveys in refugee camps through­ out NWFP,Baluchistan and Punjab provinces in Pakistan to carpile data on refugee origins, ethnic and tribal affiliation and likely routes of refugee return to Afghanistan. In addition, the projoc:t field staff undertake frequent missions into Afghanistan to gather specific infonn­ ation on road conditions, the availability of storage facilities, trans­ portation and fuel, the level of destruction of housing, irrigation systems and fannland, the location of landmines and the political and military situation at the district (woleswali)and sub-district (alaqadari) levels in those provinces of priority concern to UNHCR.

  • The Mesozoic of Afghanistan
    GeoArabia, vol. 14, no. 1, 2009, p. 147-210 Gulf PetroLink, Bahrain The Mesozoic of Afghanistan Christian Montenat ABSTRACT This paper is a review of the geology of the widely distributed Mesozoic rocks of Afghanistan. The country is a mosaic of structural blocks in a variety of geodynamic settings that were juxtaposed during the evolution of the Tethyan Ocean; the Mesozoic sedimentary, volcanic, and plutonic rocks therefore differ greatly from one block to another. Because of the adverse security situation, fieldwork has not been possible since the late 1970s and the data used in this review are therefore relatively old but are the best available. Interest in the geology of Afghanistan remains strong due to its position between the mountain chains of the Middle East and the collisional ranges of the Pamirs and Himalayas. A special feature of Tethyan geodynamics is the presence of Cimmerian (latest Triassic to earliest Cretaceous) continental blocks, microcontinents, or terranes located between the Eurasian and Indian landmasses. They are fragments of Gondwana inserted between the Paleo- and Neo-Tethys during the Mesozoic. This complex part of the Tethyan realm is well exposed in Afghanistan where the effects of the Indo- Eurasian collision were less intense than in regions of frontal collision, such as the Pamir and Himalayan ranges. It is for this reason that Afghanistan is of particular geodynamic interest and a key region in the understanding of the genesis and evolution of the Tethyan system during the Mesozoic. INTRODUCTION At the beginning of the 1960s, knowledge of the geology of Afghanistan (Figure 1) was based principally on the results of a few remarkable pioneers (Griesbach, 1885, 1886; Hayden, 1911, and later, Furon, 1927).

  • The Airport 1990" ID: AFGP-2002-600090
    Document Title: "The Airport 1990" ID: AFGP-2002-600090 Date: Describes events that took place in 1989 and 1990 Synopsis: Mustafa Hamid details the Battle of Torghar, and analyzes the importance of Torghar for the fight to take Khost as well as the military development of the mujahidin during the campaign. He also analyzes the failed March 1990 coup. This document is a prequel to AFGP-2002-600092. Key Themes: Narrative of the Battle of Torghar Mustafa Hamid narrates in great detail the process by which the mujahidin took over Torghar mountain in February 1990, and acquired a strategic advantage over Communist forces in the siege of Khost. As a journalist, at the end of 1989, Hamid decides to work with Jalaladin Haqani to produce a jihadi magazine, Manba'a al-Jihad. Some parts of the document are essays from the magazine, and as such adopt a journalistic tone. While touring the region with Abu al-Hareth (with Hajji Farid serving as his interpreter, and Hajji Ibrahim as his assistant), Mustafa Hamid first gets the idea to close the Khost airport, which he does successfully later in the year. During this tour he also experiences heaving bombing from the Communists. Before his trip to Torghar, Hamid sends his wife and children to Islamabad, after they are subject to harassment in Peshawar. He also meets with Jalaladin Haqani in January 1990. Haqani is the mujahidin leader in charge of attacking Mount Torghar, but up until that time, repeated waves of Mujahidin attacks have been unsuccessful in taking it, including a recent attack by Ismail Kheil that is coordinated very poorly.
