'Insurgents Enter Afghanistan from Pak's Borders.' Really.
2010-04-06
[Quqnoos] The governor of Kunar province has warned of the anti-government group's infiltration onto Afghan soil, reports say.

Sayed Fazlullah Wahidi, the governor of Kunar province, said in an interview with Quqnoos that most of the insurgents come from Pakistan's border in order to escalate the situation in Afghanistan.

"We are more vulnerable from the borders, and we are also threatened a lot from the outside borders. As I have heard from the insurgents' chatter, most of them are not from Afghanistan, they are from abroad," said Sayed Fazlullah Wahidi, the governor of Kunar province.

The governor of Kunar province further adds that most of these insurgents are Arab, Panjabi and other foreign nationalities.

The remark comes as the NATO senior civilian representative in Afghanistan, Mark Sedwill, acknowledges in a press conference that these comments are accurate and says that NATO has special plans on hand in order to block the ability of the Taliban to enter Afghan soil.

"We have significant plans on hand to train the Afghan border police to block these entrance points," said Mark Sedwill the NATO senior civilian representative in Afghanistan
