A group of
activists, youth and representatives of YCGP visited village of Jodara, Hiska
Mina district to raise the voice of peace. During the visit, while praying for
the souls of the martyrs who died as a result of the suicide attack in the
mosque, there were discussions with the elders and people of the village.
Jodara
village is one of the villages in Hiska Mina district of Nangarhar province,
which has been under attack for several years, faced with inhuman oppression by
ISIL and other terrorist groups. The village also has been faced with inhumane
crimes and imposed wars. The people and elders of Jodara village had two clear
demands from the government:
1 - After the
bloody attack of ISIL in this village, the president visited there and promised
for helping, but unfortunately still promises of the president had done nothing
for the people. Now, the villagers call
for attention to be paid for the people and survivors of the victims in which the
majority are children and women from the government officials in Nangarhar
province and the President;
2 - The people
of Jodara stood with resistance and self-sacrifice against the activities of
ISIL with courage and bravery for several years without no facilities.
Unfortunately, due to the lack of government support and the activism of ISIS
in the region, the water has been closed to the people of this village by the
ISIS group, which in this part also demands the serious attention of the
government and other institutions are required.
YCGP on behalf
of the youth and the new generation of Afghanistan is grateful from the heroic
people of Jodara and especially the great people of Shinwar for their stands
and sacrifice against ISIS and other regional and international terrorist
groups.
Kind regards
Secretariat of YCGP
