The counter-narcotics department of the Ministry of Interior burned more than three tons of solid narcotics and 22,000 liters of liquid narcotics today in Deh Sabz, Kabul.

Ahmadullah Ahmadi, the General Director of the Police for Combating Narcotics, says that this amount of narcotics was collected from the provinces of the central zone, including Kabul, after the re-establishment of the Islamic Emirate in the country, and 9,000 people have been arrested in connection with this.

Ahmadi stated: "In the presence of this delegation, 379 kilograms of opium are now being burned in front of you. 635 kilograms of heroin will, God willing, also be burned."

Meanwhile, Abdul Mateen Qani, spokesperson for the Ministry of Interior, says that the cultivation and production of narcotics in the country have reached zero; however, completely eradicating it requires cooperation from regional countries and the international community.

Qani also criticized the lack of cooperation from the international community in combating narcotics in the country.

The spokesperson for the Ministry of Interior said, "Despite their commitment to cooperate, unfortunately, there has been no cooperation. However, the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan has spent most of its resources and a significant portion of its budget, including some from mining revenues, to eradicate addiction and seriously combat this evil phenomenon."

Rohullah Habibi, the head of the Primary Court for Narcotics, said: "They load from Pakistan and get caught at our airport. They do not get caught at Pakistani ports or their airports; when brought to the Afghan airport to be transferred abroad and to Europe, other countries defame the Islamic Emirate."

Previously, some neighboring countries had claimed that there had been no reduction in the trafficking of industrial narcotics from Afghanistan.
