Dude, see you might need to consider the fact that that trying to sound funny and laugh at some celebration for youth to look cool isnt really cool when hundreds are dead in the past few weeks, most of them possibly youth. Admit it, it is pretty bizzare. @ashrafghani

We are going nowhere with lies. Government officials, if you keep insisting on "Ghazni safe now", there will be more lives lost.

[Fahim Abed @fahimabed]

Intense fighting continues in Ghazni, the police HQ caught fire and collapsed to the Taliban. 113 dead bodies and 142 wounded were taken to Ghazni hospital. The hospital is running out of the capacity for treatment, they are using corridors and other available space. Officials

If they wander onto the road, there is a good chance a fast driver may hit and kill them. Pease drive slowly!

Everyday hundreds of these beautiful creatures are hit by vehicles driving too fast.

Toll among journalists killed in Kabul stands to eight, bloodiest incident for press in Afghanistan history of war.

[Samim Faramarz @say_samim]

There they are. The journalists who were there to report from an explosion scene when another explosion took their own lives. Next time there’s an explosion, I’m pretty sure government forces will threaten us to stay away and remind us of today’s incident. #Kabul

At a small bakery in Shindand, worked three kids. Three breadwinners of their families. They baked bread so that they can afford bread for their families. #everydayafghanistan

You all, if you are done cheering for the World Cup entry, can we talk about the car bomb explosion in Lashkargah now? @ashrafghani @afgexecutive

In one week, Taliban and ISIS in Afghanistan have attacked an intl NGO working for children, a civilian hotel and 60+ civilians in Kabul without a govt/military target in sight. Is there a goal here beyond spreading chaos and creating headlines?
