The Afghan member of the General Assembly of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly stated, “Shiites are a minority in Afghanistan, and they constitute only about a quarter of the country’s population. Being a minority has caused various obstacles for the country’s Shiites, and the efforts to remove these obstacles have not been enough so far.”

Hojat al-Islam Akbari stated, “We are expecting the Shia Ulema Council of Afghanistan to provide us with the rightful and legitimate demands of the Afghan Shiite society – which constitutes more than 20% of the country’s population.”

The Deputy of Cultural Affairs of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly, hojat al-Islam Ahmad Ahmadi Tabar, “The tragic martyrdom of these martyrs wounded the hearts of the Islamic Ummah. A group of students in western Kabul was attacked by terrorists, and the Muslim Ummah mourned.”
