The 209th Army Corps of Al-Fath in Balkh province says it has repaired more than 2,000 military vehicles that had been damaged during the withdrawal of foreign troops two years ago.

“We repaired and reactivated about 2,432 different vehicles with the few facilities and personnel we have,” said Abdulaziz Kalimullah, the technical manager of the 209th Army Corps of Al-Fath.
“There is no war in Afghanistan now, but due to the needs of different brigades, a number of these vehicles are distributed for the purpose of defending the territorial integrity of the country, and the rest of these vehicles, which are our national capital, will be protected and maintained,” said Sediqullah Nusrat, the spokesman of the 209th Army Corps of Al-Fath.
Authorities, in the 209th Army Command of Al-Fath, says that protection of the borders and the defense of the territorial integrity of the country are stated as one of their most basic goals.
“Your children, your brothers, have maintained the treasury and repaired the vehicles that were destroyed, and in the future, we will defend the territorial integrity of the country and the people of Afghanistan without any concessions,” said Naqibullah Azizi, army commander in 209th Army Corps.
However, according to officials, the process of repairing vehicles is ongoing.
