[AfghanDigest] LAST 24 HOURS
- SUPREME LEADER VISITS MILITARY BASE – In a move that some analysts are saying was a bid to shore up support among the rank and file of the Taliban security forces, Hibatullah Akhundzada visited the garrison of the 215th Azam Corps on Saturday. During his visit, the Supreme Leader told the assembled personnel that they should maintain readiness and then met privately with the unit’s leaders.
- PAKISTAN RELEASES 524 AFGHANS FROM PRISON – The Afghan Embassy in Islamabad announced that 524 Afghan nationals had been released from prisons after an international outcry over the detention of women and children made headlines around the world. Efforts to release more are being pursued by the Taliban, international aid organizations, and several human rights legal groups.
- RESCUE OPERATIONS CONTINUE FOR TRAPPED MINERS IN BADAKHSHAN – 1 miner was rescued on Saturday after surviving for forty hours under dirt and rubble. It is not known how many others may be trapped but there are concerns that they will have perished by the time diggers can get to them.
- CASH AID SHIPMENTS HALTED OVER TALIBAN GENDER POLICIES – Officials from the Central Bank have admitted that financial transfers from the international community and UN agencies had not been received in some weeks. The UN’s chief humanitarian coordinator, Martin Griffiths confirmed that UN flights that had previously brought much-needed hard currency into Afghanistan had been suspended. The halt in financial assistance is likely part of the ‘consequences’ that many in the international community referenced after the draconian policies were announced.
NEXT 24 HOURS
HEAVY STORMS FORECASTED FOR SOUTH CENTRAL PROVINCES AND NORTHERN BADAKHSHAN – Heavy rain and snowfall is predicted in 15 Provinces today and tomorrow. The storms are expected to affect the South-Central Provinces and a portion of Northern Badakhshan. The inclement weather is expected to disrupt travel and will be followed by cold temperatures that will last into mid-week. At-risk Afghans who may be planning travel should adjust their schedules accordingly.
