In order to enhance the education level especially of those students who do not have access to books, we have started this donation, said the head of Baran Publication.

It’s the winter season, and students are on their breaks. Those who like reading spend their breaks reading storybooks.

“I like books, and here I will read all of the books given to me,” said Saleh, a student.

“In three months of winter, we will read the books to use the good points of them,” said Zarina, a student.

This comes as Baran Publications have been donating books, especially for children in the last ten years.

“We are doing these donations to raise the level of literacy and education in the country,” said Sohrab Omar, the Baran Publication moderator.

In the meantime, officials in the Kabul Education Department underline that distributing these books can add to the knowledge of students.

However, some of the students have concerns about insufficient books in schools.

Former Jihadi leader Gulbuddin Hekmatyar has criticized the United States for patrolling Afghanistan’s airspace with drones.

Hekmatyar said in a speech Tuesday that any form of American presence in Afghanistan is unacceptable.

“Afghanistan’s airspace is under occupation. Expressing this issue is our religious responsibility. We have sacrificed the most for freedom. We do not accept any presence of America. We do not accept any kind of foreign rule,” he said.

Hekmatyar also stated that there is a possibility of American troops entering the country again.

“[Former] President Trump’s national security advisor says that their departure was a mistake and that they should return. This is not an ordinary issue. The possibility that they will make a mistake again and return to Afghanistan is very strong,” he said.

The Islamic Emirate has not commented so far on Hekmatyar’s remarks, but it has confirmed sightings of drones over Afghanistan.

“It is required that the respected officials of the caretaker government give explanations on this matter and respond to the concerns of the Afghan people in this matter, because important and great national issues are important for every Afghan citizen and if there is a problem, it will be a cause of concern for everyone,” said Fazl-ul-Hadi Wazin, a university lecturer.
