پنځه کاله وړاندې په همدې ورځ، د افغانستان په پلازمینه کابل ښار کې یوه اسلامپاله ترهګر د امریکا د وسله والو ځواکونو ۱۳ تنه زړور سرتېري ووژل او پدې ټوګه ېې هغوی له خپلو کورنیو او هېواد څخه جلا کړل. موږ به هغوی هېڅکله هېر نه کړو او بیا به هېڅکله هم اجازه ورنکړو چې په یونیفورم کې زموږ له ښځینه او نارینه سرتېرو سره داسې ��تر خیانت وشي.

Five years ago today, 13 brave American service members were taken from their families and their country by an Islamic terrorist in Kabul, Afghanistan.

We will never forget them, and never again allow our men and women in uniform to be so utterly betrayed.

پنج سال پیش در چنین روزی، 13 تن‌ از نیروهای شجاع نظامی ایالات متحده به دست یک تروریست اسلام‌گرا در شهر کابل پایتخت افغانستان کشته و بدین منوال از خانواده و کشور شان جدا ساخته شدند. ما هرگز آنان را فراموش نخواهیم کرد و دیگر هرگز اجازه نخواهیم داد تا در حق نظامیان ما اعم از زن و مرد چنین خیانت بزرگ روا داشته شود.

نن د امریکایي وګړي محمود شاه حبیبي د ورکېدو څلور کاله پوره کېږي. هیڅ دلیل نه تر سترګو کیږي چې ګواکي دا موضوع دې حل نشي. موږ لا هم د محمود کور ته د راستنولو لپاره ژمن یو او د هغه د بېرته راستنېدو لپاره د اړینو ګامونو اخیستو ته چمتو یو. د هغه د ځای موندنې، ژغورنې او بېرت�� راستنولو لپاره د معلوماتو په بدل کې تر ۵ میلیونه ډالرو پورې جایزه ورکول کیږي.

[Special Presidential Envoy for Hostage Affairs @StateSPEHA]

Today marks four years since the disappearance of American Mahmood Shah Habibi. There is no reason for this case to remain unresolved. We remain committed to bringing Mahmood home and are ready to take the necessary steps to secure his return. A reward of up to $5 million remains available for information leading to his location, recovery, and return.

[U.S. Mission to Afghanistan @USEmbassyKabul]

امروز چهار سال از ناپدید شدن محمود شاه حبیبی، شهروند آمریکایی، می‌گذرد. هیچ دلیلی وجود ندارد که این موضوع همچنان لا ینحل باقی بماند. ما همچنان متعهد به بازگرداندن محمود به خانه هستیم و آماده‌ایم برای تحقق بازگشت او اقدامات لازم را روی دست گیریم. برای ارائه اطلاعاتی که منجر به یافتن محل نگهداری، بازیابی و بازگرداندن او شود، جایزه‌ای تا سقف ۵ میلیون دالر همچنان در نظر گرفته شده است.

د پاول اووربي کورنۍ د هغه د لادرکۍ وروسته په خوست ولایت کې، له ۱۲ کلونو راهیسې له بې ځوابه پوښتنو سره ژوند کوي. موږ لا هم په بهر کې د امریکايي وګړو د بیرته راګرځولو له هڅو ملاتړ کوو او ډاډ ترلاسه کوو چې هېڅ امریکايی وګړۍ هېر نه شي. که تاسو داسې اطلاعات لرئ چې کولای شي پاول خپل کور ته راستنېدو کې مرسته وکړي، متحده ایالات تر ۱ میلیون ډالرو پورې جایزه ورکوي.

For 12 years, the family of Paul Overby has lived with unanswered questions following his disappearance in Khost Province, Afghanistan. We continue to support efforts to recover Americans abroad and ensure no American is forgotten. If you have information that could help bring Paul home, the U.S. is offering a reward of up to $1 million.

[U.S. Mission to Afghanistan @USEmbassyKabul]

خانواده پاول اووربی پس از ناپدید شدن او در ولایت خوست افغانستان، برای مدت ۱۲ سال با سوالات بی پاسخ زندگی کرده اند. ما همچنان از تلاش برای بازگرداندن اتباع امریکایی در خارج از کشور حمایت مینماییم و اطمینان حاصل میکنیم که هیچ تبع امریکایی فراموش نگردد. اگر اطلاعات در دست دارید که میتواند در بازگشت پاول به خانه کمک کند، ایالات متحده جایزه ای تا 1 میلیون دالر پیشنهاد میکند.

د دې میاشتې په پیل کې، ما د ډینس کویل له خویندو، مولي، ایمي او پیټي سره ولیدل ځکه چې دوی په افغانستان کې د خپل ورور ډینس کویل د خوشې کولو لپاره د مرستې غوښتنه کوله. نن، ډینس خپل کور ته په لاره دی. موږ د متحده عربي اماراتو او قطر هیواد څخه د دوی د ملاتړ لپاره مننه کوو. دا خوشې کول د یرغمل نیونې ډیپلوماسۍ د پای ته رسولو لپاره یو مثبت ګام دې.

Earlier this month, I met Molly, Amy, and Patti as they asked for help freeing their brother Dennis Coyle from detention in Afghanistan. Today, Dennis is on his way home. We thank the UAE and Qatar for their support. The release is a positive step towards ending the practice of hostage diplomacy.

[U.S. Mission to Afghanistan @USEmbassyKabul]

اوایل این ماه، من با مالی، ایمی و پتی دیدار کردم؛ آنان از من درخواست کردند تا برای آزادی برادرشان، دنیس کویل، از بازداشت در افغانستان کمک کنم. دنیس امروز در راه بازگشت به خانه است. ما ازحمایت امارات متحده عربی و قطر درین راستا سپاسگزاری می‌کنیم. این رهایی گامی مثبت در جهت پایان دادن به روند «دیپلماسی گروگان‌گیری» است.

Today, I am designating Afghanistan as a State Sponsor of Wrongful Detention. The Taliban continue to use terrorist tactics to seek policy concessions, but it won’t work under this administration. The Taliban must release Dennis Coyle, Mahmood Habibi, and all Americans unjustly detained in Afghanistan.

[U.S. Mission to Afghanistan @USEmbassyKabul]

نن زه افغانستان د ناسمو نیونو د ملاتړکونکو هیوادونو په نوملړ کې شاملوم. طالبان اوس هم د سیاسې امتیازاتو د ترلاسه کولو لپاره، د ترهګریزو تکتیکونو کارولو ته دوام ورکوې، اما د متحده ایالاتو د اوسنۍ ادارې پر وړاندې به دا ډول چلند یا کړنې کار ورنه کړې. طالبان باید ډینس کویل، محمود حبیبې او ټول هغه امریکایي وګړې چې په ناحقه ډول په افغانستان کې زنداني دي ، ژر تر ژر خوشې کړي.

[U.S. Mission to Afghanistan @USEmbassyKabul]

امروز من افغانستان را به عنوان کشور حامی بازداشت های نا ع��دلانه تعین می کنم. طالبان همچنان از تاکتیک های تروریستی برای به دست آوردن امتیازات سیاسی استفاده می کنند، اما این روش در برابر اداره کنونی ایالات متحده موفق نخواهد شد. طالبان باید دنیس کویل، محمود حبیبی و همه شهروندان امریکایی را که به طور ناعادلانه در افغانستان توقیف شده اند، آزاد کنند.

We are aware of the recent escalation in tensions and outbreak of fighting between the Taliban and Pakistan, and we continue to monitor the situation closely. See updated travel alert below.
