Afghanistan: Civilian Casualties Report 2016
11 January 2017By Zabihullah Mujahid
From the day the terror spreading imperialist country, America, and her
reluctant allies launched the unjustified and futile invasion of our beloved
homeland Afghanistan, from that date our oppressed but valiant countrymen have
been facing terrible sufferings. The reign of terror by America and her allies
has been ongoing on a daily basis, pushing the world into a state of carnage
not yet witnessed in history.
The Islamic Emirate has founded an independent organ under the name of
Department for Prevention of Civilian Casualties and Complaints tasked with
collecting documented incidents of civilian casualties caused during the
American barbarism, searching for ways of its prevention and presenting the
world with reports of American savagery against the defenseless Afghans
founded on solid evidence.
Just as the mentioned department has published quarterly civilian casualty
reports, it similarly presents its annual report on civilian casualties for
the year 2016 in accordance with the guidince of the leader of Islamic
Emirate.
Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan's Department for Prevention of Civilian
Casualties and Complaints has documented a total of 692 incidents of civilian
casualties during the year 2016 resulting in death and injury to 5232
civilians.
Out of the total 692 incidents, 485 or 71.10% of incidents are attributed to
the Americans and the stooge administration, 121 or 17.48% of incidents to
Daesh, unidentified gunmen and infighting among locals due to disputes while
86 or 12.42% of incidents are attributed to the Mujahideen.
A total of 2004 civilian countrymen (1540 male, 206 female and 258 children)
have died during the year 2016 among which 1504 (76.84%) have been martyred at
the hands of America and the stooge administration, 380 (18.96%) at the hands
of Daesh and unidentified gunmen and 120 (5.98%) inadvertently in the attacks
of Mujahideen.
A total of 3228 civilian countrymen (2481 male, 145 female and 302 children)
have also been injured in the year 2016 among which 2332 (72.24%) have been
injured at the hands of America and the stooge administration, 747 (23.14%) at
the hands of Daesh and unidentified gunmen and 149 (4.61%) inadvertently in
the attacks of Mujahideen.
It must be reminded that in the incidents where the Mujahideen of Islamic
Emirate have been indicted, the Department for Prevention of Civilian
Casualties and Complaints has carried out a comprehensive investigation,
forwarded the cases of perpetrators to the Military Courts for a verdict and
punished those found guilty in accordance with the decree and in light of
Shariah. It has similarly met with the family of victims for the purposes of
peace and reconciliation.
We must not fail to mention that Commission for Hearing Complaints was
recently integrated into the Department for Prevention of Civilian Casualties.
The Commission for Hearing Complaints was tasked, in accordance with the
issued guidelines, to hear the claims of anyone against the Mujahideen (be
they low rank or high rank) without any hindrance and to resolve the problem
as quickly as possible in the light of Shariah. To this date this commission
has heard a number of complaints of locals throughout the country and taken
all necessary steps for a resolution.
The guidelines of this commission state that even if a high-ranking member
Islamic Emirate is found guilty following the registration of a complaint
against him , he will be dealt with as an ordinary individual. And the
Commission has dealt with several such cases so far.
As far as civilian casualty figures are concerned – of the total 692 incidents
– most have been carried out by foreign forces and their internal mercenaries
or those associated with Daesh, and we have documented proof for all these
incidents. We would like to share several shocking and deliberate acts by the
American and forces associated with them as examples which have also been
accepted by them.
