The Bayat Foundation are appealing to you, the public, around the world, to help provide desperately needed humanitarian aid to as many Afghans as possible ahead of winter.

Bayat Foundation was established in 2006, and has helped deliver hope and support to the neediest and most at-risk Afghans over the years.

However, our support, with your help, is needed now more so than ever, as the combined shocks of drought, conflict, COVID-19 and an economic crisis in Afghanistan, have left more than half the population, an estimated 22.8 million people, extremely vulnerable and facing a record level of acute hunger.

Winter is fast approaching, which means that soon millions of people will be cut off from the world as snow and ice blankets large parts of the country.

So it is critical for us at Bayat Foundation to help relief efforts and get as much emergency aid to hungry people ahead of this fast approaching freezing winter.

Already we have successfully distributed thousands of food parcels to desperate families in Kandahar, Herat and Mazar-e-Sharif and we will continue to do so for as long as we can. (Read more here)

However, we rely heavily on members of the public and the private sector to help fund our initiatives and therefore appeal for cash donations.

Any donation, no matter how big or small, will go a long way to help feed hungry Afghans and stave off what experts have called a looming humanitarian catastrophe.

So, we appeal to you all, to please open your hearts and help us save lives as every penny helps.

We Give So They May Live Campaign – Donate Here: www.helpafg.org

Ariana News and Ariana Television fully support the Bayat Foundation’s initiative to raise funds to provide emergency aid to poverty-stricken Afghans. As official media partners we appeal to you to help provide food essentials to as many Afghan families as possible.

Pakistan says cross-Durand Line communities seek peace and stability

Pakistan says communities living along the Afghanistan-Pakistan Durand Line want peace and stability, despite ongoing security concerns in the region.

Speaking during a weekly media briefing, Pakistan Foreign Office spokesperson Tahir Andrabi said there are no major issues between the people of Afghanistan and Pakistan, adding that residents on both sides of the Durand Line want peaceful relations and greater regional stability.

However, Andrabi claimed that terrorism originating from Afghan territory continues to undermine peace efforts.

He said Islamabad believes militant activity crossing from Afghanistan remains a significant obstacle to improving regional security and bilateral ties.

The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan has repeatedly rejected such allegations, maintaining that no militant group is allowed to use Afghan soil to threaten neighboring countries.

Andrabi also said Pakistan remains diplomatically engaged on regional matters involving Afghanistan, Iran, India, and Somalia, stressing that dialogue and diplomacy remain Islamabad’s preferred means of resolving disputes.

Pakistan’s Achakzai calls for freer movement across disputed Durand Line

Published

on

Mahmood Khan Achakzai, a member of Pakistan’s National Assembly and head of the Pakhtunkhwa Awami National Party, has said that if capable statesmen had been in power, people living on both sides of the Durand Line could have moved freely across the line.

Speaking during a podcast interview, Achakzai said that countries with histories of major conflict, including Russia, Germany and the United Kingdom, now maintain far more open borders despite past wars. He said that in many such regions, only a “paper line” remains, with limited border restrictions.

Drawing comparisons with the disputed Durand Line boundary between Afghanistan and Pakistan, Achakzai argued that a similar arrangement could have been possible in South Asia.

“What is the problem here? A Punjabi could dance in Kandahar and a Pashtun could come here. Even if we are not formally one country, we could have effectively functioned like one,” he said.

The Pakistani politician also referred to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the later U.S.-led intervention, saying Afghanistan has the right to seek war reparations from those countries to support reconstruction efforts.

Achakzai further criticised the treatment of Pashtuns in Pakistan, alleging that individuals in cities including Lahore and Karachi have faced detention and deportation.
