Family Conflict in Eastern Afghanistan: 5 Fatalities Including Women
[Khaama (Afghanistan)] A dispute which sparked between two families, in the eastern Afghan province of Laghman
...Afghan province with a population of about 445,600, which is multi-ethnic and mostly a rural society. During the invasions of Alexander the Great, the area was known as Lampaka, wich is apparently Olde Macedonian for Laghman.The city of Mihtarlam serves as the bucolic capital of the province. The population is half Pashtun, the remainder Tadjik and Pashai. It had a repution for great wealth until it was conquered in the tenth century by Abu Mansur Sabuktigin.
He conquered it and set fire to the places in its vicinity which were inhabited by infidels, and demolishing the idol-temples, he established Islam in them, He marched and captured other cities and killed the polluted wretches, destroying the idolatrous and gratifying the Musulmans. After wounding and killing beyond all measure, his hands and those of his friends became cold in counting the value of the plundered property.
After that it was mostly notable for the production of dirt, rocks, and holy men...
, led to five fatalities, said local Taliban
...mindless ferocity in a turban...
authorities.

The Taliban-run Bakhtar state news agency reported that the conflict between the families took place in the Dawlat Shah district of Laghman province on Thursday.

According to Qari Abdul Qadir Mutawakkul, the district governor of the Taliban in Dawlat Shah district, in the conflict, the father, mother, and son of one family, as well as a couple from another family, were killed.

The Taliban officials, on the other hand, did not comment or provide any information about what prompted the families to inflict human losses on one another.

A land dispute between two families earlier in late August in the southeast Afghan province of Khost
...which coincidentally borders North Wazoo and Kurram Agency...
resulted in one fatality and 10 injuries.

In the southeast and east of Afghanistan, disputes over land and water have become common among tribes and families, often resulting in the tragic death of their loved ones.

Under the Taliban’s control, there has recently been a marked rise in reports of suicide, domestic violence, honor killings, family conflicts, and personal enmity.
