This October marks the 17th anniversary of the US and Coalition forces’ invasion of Afghanistan, triggering a war that has now lasted four times longer than WW1.
217,000 Afghans have died as a direct result of fighting. The latest UN report described fatality rates in the first six months of 2018 as “the bloodiest on record”
The war on Afghanistan has been a costly disaster. We demand that the UK Government withdraw their military and focus instead on helping to bring stability and peace to Afghanistan.
