attacks dramatically increased after the impasse in the peace negotiations in Doha.

The majority of the casualties occurred due to IED attacks and assassinations in the cities.

"As long as time pressure is not applied to the warring parties and they are not condemned, violence will not be reduced," said Sadiq Qaderi, MP.

Most of the incidents gripped provinces like Kabul, Nangarhar
