Afghan journalist Bilal Sarwari reported that Hasan Jabarkhel, a former military officer of the Republican army, was killed yesterday by unknown armed men in Shakar Dara district of Kabul. This attack occurs as targeted assassinations have been increasing in the capital.
Hasan Jabarkhel was an experienced officer in the national army during the Republican regime who had left his official position after the political changes in Afghanistan in 2021. Sources indicate he had received threats in recent months but continued his normal life.
Security authorities have not yet made an official statement about this incident, and no group has claimed responsibility for the attack. Jabarkhel’s family has demanded a serious investigation into the killing and identification of the perpetrators.
