Kabul residents complain of soaring fuel prices
As winter is approaching, Kabul residents express concerns and complain about rising in fuel prices, especially coal and firewood.
Kabul residents said that economic problems, lack of work and high fuel prices have caused them to not be able to provide the fuel they need for winter.
Some fuel sellers however believe that the reason for the increase in the price of fuel is the increase in rent and tax.
“The rent fare has doubled and the tax has also increased,” said Khan Wazir, fuel seller.
Meanwhile, Nematullah Barakzai, the spokesperson of Kabul Municipality, said that there is a specific price list in the market which is being implemented accordingly.
Every year with the approach of winter season, the price of fuel increases and citizens criticize the neglect of government officials for not controlling the market.
Tajik authorities say their border guards clashed with militants who crossed into Tajikistan’s Khatlon region from Afghanistan on Tuesday night.
Tajikistan’s State Committee for National Security said in a statement that militants intended to carry out an armed attack on one of the border outposts.
Three militants were killed and two Tajik soldiers died in the clash. From the scene, three firearms—an M-16 rifle and a Kalashnikov assault rifle—three foreign-made pistols equipped with suppressors, ten hand grenades, one night-vision device, explosives, and other military equipment were seized, according to the committee.
This was the third reported attack from Afghanistan into Tajikistan in the past month, with the previous ones targeting Chinese nationals.
The Islamic Emirate previously said it assured Tajikistan it was ready to tighten border security and conduct joint investigations.
