Today marks the 34th anniversary of the Mujahideen victory over Dr. Najibullah's government in Afghanistan, an event locally known as 8 Saur. Thirty-four years ago, after fourteen years of intense conflict, Afghan Mujahideen forces successfully defeated the Soviet-backed regime and took power.
The Taliban government released a statement commemorating 8 Saur as a proud historical day of triumph and a great divine blessing. They strongly condemned the earlier 7 Saur coup and the subsequent Soviet invasion, praising the resilience of the Afghan people in their struggle.
However, many citizens and political analysts view this historical date with mixed emotions. They argue that the Mujahideen's rise to power in 1992 unfortunately triggered a devastating new chapter of brutal civil wars and internal conflicts, leading to widespread destruction and mass displacement across the country.
