| Challenges Facing Helmand Security Forces |
| 2015-11-18 |
| A recent investigation into the ongoing war in Helmand shows that security forces face huge challenges in fighting insurgents due to a lack of military hardware and the failure to get quick back up when needed. TOLOnews journalist Tamim Hamid spent several days with these forces on the frontline as they engaged in clashes with insurgents. In this report, local authorities talk about the absence of thousands of soldiers among the various security force branches in the province. The people of Helmand, meanwhile, have strongly criticized what they call a lack of good governance in the province which they believe is the main reason for ongoing insecurity in the area.
