In a BBC interview, the third question was about the freedom to drink alcohol.

In a country where 60 years of oppression have just ended, and where mass graves of 150,000 people were discovered just yesterday, this is the third question you choose to ask!

Helmand was Afghanistan's most dangerous province during the US occupation. Today, it is quiet, but scarred.

I write for @The_NewArab on my travels in Helmand and its forgotten story: from Islamic centre to battling the USSR, UK (three times) & USA alike.

Afghan Soft Drinks can be found in local stores and cafes in Moscow. Cafe owner told me that this pomegranate drink from Herat is one of the most popular drinks among his customers

I am ready to become Firini Ambassador in Russia

[Noor ahmad ⚡ @nahafghan]

Mr ASKEROV! Next, We will send you firini from Kabul.

[Mir-Ali Askerov @miraliasker]

@naeem97k Honestly speaking, we don't have much of soft drinks with pomegranate flavor. So this one is kind of unique. Anyway as a fan of soft drinks I would rate this one as very good

Latest from Kabul: interview with @NaseebAFGcric on how the Afghan cricket team has defied odds internationally.

'As Afghanistan’s team continues its meteoric rise to the peak of international cricket, it finds itself subject to heavy politicisation.' https://t.co/BvdcBsx4MH

Travelling to Afghanistan increases your T level massively as recent studies by Tribal Elders, involving tourists, prove that men who travelled to Afghanistan reported a sudden spike in their T level. Some of the tourists I have seen, personally testified to these findings.

@IbnSufyan313 It is a fake information about 2 mil $ and helicopter. It was unconfirmed and spread at the early hours by some media outlets, but then it was refuted by both - Russian official media and rioters

@AziziNoorullah Well in this case if Kremlin's hand is involved in current peace and de-occupation in Afghanistan, than I can only say thanks to Vladimir Putin as well

[Mir-Ali Askerov @miraliasker]

Visited Kabul for the first time in the spring of 2019 and returned to this city only in the spring of 2024. In 2024 I was amazed - it seemed to me that I came to a different city, which has nothing in common with 1/3
