KABUL, 27 July 2021, (TON): An official representative of the Taliban, Zabiullah Mujahid said that the radical movement considers the report of the UN mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) biased and refutes it.

Earlier, the UN mission reported that the number of killed and injured among the civilian population in Afghanistan in the first half of 2021 reached a record level, especially a sharp increase in violence occurred in May against the backdrop of the withdrawal of foreign forces.

It was noted that anti-government forces, including the Taliban, continue to be responsible for the majority of civilian casualties (64%), while pro-government forces are responsible for about 25%.

The Taliban spokesman said in a statement that the Islamic Emirate (the self-designation of the Taliban’s governing system – ed.) Denies this report, stating that in the past six months the Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate have not deliberately killed civilians or carried out attacks anywhere. that could lead to civilian casualties.”

He noted that civilians could have died due to the detonation of mines in war zones, but this was not a deliberate act.
