  • Update Conflict Displacement Faryab Province 22 May 2013
    Update conflict displacement Faryab Province 22 May 2013 Background On 22 April, Anti-Government Elements (AGE) launched a major attack in Qaysar district, making Faryab province one of their key targets of the spring offensive. The fighting later spread to Almar district of Faryab province and Ghormach of Badghis Province, displacing approximately 2,500 people. The attack in Qaysar was well organized, involving several hundred AGE fighters. According to Shah Farokh Shah, commander of 300 Afghan local policemen in Khoja Kinti, some of the insurgents were identified as ‘Chechens and Pakistani Taliban’1. The Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF) has regained control of the Qaysar police checkpoints. The plan is to place 60 Afghan local policemen (ALPs) at the various checkpoints in the Khoja Kinti area. Quick Response Forces with 40 ALPs have already been posted. ANSF is regaining control in Ghormach district. Similar efforts are made in Almar and Pashtun Kot. Faryab OCCT has decided to replace ALP and ANP, originally coming from Almar district, with staff from other districts. Reportedly the original ALP and ANP forces have sided with the AGE. Security along the Shiberghan - Andkhoy road has improved. The new problem area is the Andkhoy - Maymana road part. 200 highway policemen are being recruited to secure the Maymana - Shibergan highway. According to local media reports the Taliban forces have not been defeated and they are still present in the area. There may be further displacement in view of the coming ANSF operations. Since the start of this operation on 22 April, UNAMA documented 18 civilian casualties in Qaysar district from ground engagements between AGEs and ANSF, IED incidents targeting ANP and targeted killings.

  • 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.

A man assists an injured child following a suicide attack launched by Anti-Government Elements on 18 April 2015, in Jalalabad city, Nangarhar province, which caused 158 civilian casualties (32 deaths and 126 injured, including five children). Photo taken on 18 April 2015. UNAMA documented a 78 per cent increase in civilian casualties attributed to Anti-Government Elements from complex and suicide attacks in the first half of 2015. "The cold statistics of civilian casualties do not adequately capture the horror of violence in Afghanistan, the torn bodies of children, mothers and daughters, sons and fathers. The statistics in this report do not reveal the grieving families and the loss of shocked communities of ordinary Afghans. These are the real consequences of the conflict in Afghanistan.” Nicholas Haysom, United Nations Special Representative of the Secretary- General in Afghanistan, Kabul, August 2015. “This is a devastating report, which lays bare the heart-rending, prolonged suffering of civilians in Afghanistan, who continue to bear the brunt of the armed conflict and live in insecurity and uncertainty over whether a trip to a bank, a tailoring class, to a court room or a wedding party, may be their last.
