He said majority of the snuffies from the regional countries are fighting in Afghanistan and the regional countries must assist Afghanistan since the ongoing war is a regional issue.

The United Nations
...an organization which on balance has done more bad than good, with the good not done well and the bad done thoroughly...
Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) condemned the deadly attack and called it an appalling disregard for human.
