Some residents of Kunduz who are in Kabul for the last few days said they have lost their family members in airstrikes and that now they are in the Afghan capital to seek justice for their loved ones.

The residents said that four houses were destroyed and all members of a family were killed in airstrikes in Kunduz city last year, but so far, the families said their demands have not been addressed by the government.

“We shared the issue with the government, but a convincing response was not given when it comes to finding the perpetrators of the killing of my brother’s family,” said Daud Rahmani, member of a victim’s family.

“You are in deep sleep and suddenly an airstrike happens. Is it logic?" asked Asadullah, a Kunduz resident.

The residents said the government has not paid the required attention to the matter.

“No one would have done such a crime if the perpetrators of the incident were identified and were handed to judiciaries,” said Mohammad Rafi Kakar, a Kunduz resident.

The Ministry of Martyrs and Disabled said that at least 3,000 families who are living in Taliban-influenced areas in Kunduz have been deprived of assistance.

“All those who have lost their family members in the conflicts or have lost part of their body will be helped based on the laws,” said Zia-Ul-Haq Fazli, spokesman for the ministry.

Watchdog organizations reports indicate that at least 3,000 civilians were killed in conflicts in the country last year.

Meanwhile, figures by Afghanistan National Disaster Management Authority indicate that at least 18,000 families were displaced due to conflicts in six provinces, including Baghlan, Kunduz, Farah, Herat, Ghor and Uruzgan, over the last month. Nearly 45,000 families were displaced during the last year, the figures by the authority show.
