![]() “This despicable act is further proof of the enemy’s blatant disregard for innocent Afghan children and civilians,” said a Combined Joint Task Force 76 spokesperson. Taliban extremists have been implicated or have claimed responsibility for damaging more than 45 schools, assassinating teachers and intimidating school aged children in the past year. “These Taliban extremists are attempting to deprive education to innocent Afghan children and derail the future of Afghanistan,” the spokesperson said. “Afghan Security Forces, together with Coalition forces, will not rest until those responsible for this criminal act are brought to justice.” |
