IEA’s Supreme Leader ends caretaker status of cabinet
Sheikh Hibatullah Akhundzada, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, announced in a statement marking the fourth anniversary of the Islamic Emirate’s return to power that the caretaker status of the cabinet has officially ended.
He emphasized the importance of officials prioritizing the welfare and peace of the Afghan people while serving under the Islamic legal framework.
The statement highlighted the significant achievements since the end of foreign occupation, noting that Afghanistan has now established a sacred Shariah-based system. It also pointed to the restoration of comprehensive security throughout the country after decades of conflict, as well as the liberation of the population from corruption, oppression, usurpation, narcotics, theft, and plunder.
Additionally, the leader underscored progress in national unity, noting that Afghans have overcome divisions based on language, ethnicity, political affiliation, and other sectarian differences. He urged the people to express gratitude for these “great divine blessings,” warning that ingratitude could lead to severe consequences.
Randhir Jaiswal, spokesperson for India’s Ministry of External Affairs, announced on Friday that a 2.5-ton consignment, including emergency medicines, medical disposables, kits, and equipment has been delivered to Kabul.
According to him, the aid shipment is intended to support the swift recovery of those injured in the recent airstrike by Pakistan’s military regime.
He emphasized that India stands with the people of Afghanistan and will continue to provide all possible humanitarian assistance.
The Afghanistan Journalists Center (AFJC) has announced that Mahdi Ansary, a reporter for the Afghan News Agency (AFKA), has been released after serving one and a half years in Bagram prison.
In a statement welcoming his release, AFJC emphasized that the fundamental rights of this journalist—who had been tried and imprisoned on charges of cooperating with exiled and foreign media—were “seriously” violated.
Ansari was arrested on October 5, 2023, after returning from his workplace in Kabul.
He was sentenced on January 1, 2024 by the Kabul Primary Court to one and a half years in prison on charges of “propaganda against the Islamic Emirate.”
Farid Dehqan, spokesperson for the Khas Kunar police command, said that rocket attacks by the Pakistani military regime are still ongoing in the province.
These attacks come despite earlier announcements by the Pakistani military of a temporary ceasefire for Eid.
