Afghanistan's participation [00:05:27] in this plan can have positive effects on Afghanistan.

A number of cultural figures and youth [00:12:43] also emphasize preserving unity and solidarity and striving [00:12:47] for the stability and development of the country. Najibullah [00:12:50] Foroutan reports. With the approach of the twenty-fourth. [00:12:53] It is considered a great victory. [00:13:18] The presidency has also asked the residents of Daikundi to maintain [00:13:21] unity and solidarity in the country. [00:13:33] We are on the eve of August 24, a historic day for the nation and people of Afghanistan, a day when the people of Afghanistan [00:13:36] truly, through unity, solidarity, brotherhood, [00:13:39] and equality, were able to expel [00:13:42] the armed forces and hostile countries [00:13:45] from Afghanistan, achieve Afghanistan's independence, [00:13:49] and we want this historic day [00:13:52] to be celebrated in a grand manner. [00:14:00] Youth and cultural figures in Nili also welcome this occasion. [00:14:03] They say that youth, as the future generation of the country, have a responsibility [00:14:07] to preserve existing values. They must be vigilant [00:14:11] from foreign forces, and with unity and solidarity, they must strive [00:14:14] for the stability and development of the country. [00:14:17] Our Mujahideen, from every social class, have been able to guarantee [00:14:20] Afghanistan's independence against any government [00:14:24] or regime. Today, it is the responsibility of the youth, as the most [00:14:27] important segment of society, to protect the efforts [00:14:31] of our predecessors and also [00:14:35] not allow the blood of our martyrs to go in vain, [00:14:38] and also for Afghanistan to again [00:14:42] be entangled with powerful countries. As a young person, [00:14:45] I see August 24 as a glorious day [00:14:48] for the people of Afghanistan. This is a memorable day [00:14:52] when the people of Afghanistan, [00:14:56] with empty hands, were able to expel [00:14:58] the equipped forces from the country. [00:15:02] Therefore, my message to the people of Afghanistan [00:15:05] is that they should never surrender to oppressive and unjust powers [00:15:09] and always defend their country and their rights. [00:15:13] It is worth mentioning that August 24 of each year is celebrated [00:15:17] to mark the return of the Islamic Emirate to Kabul and the end of the presence of occupying forces [00:15:20] in Afghanistan.

[00:15:53] For this purpose, officials from the Department of Culture [00:15:57] of Logar say that the necessary preparations [00:16:00] for holding the August 24 ceremony have been made, and [00:16:04] efforts are underway to hold it as grandly as possible. [00:17:38] And after that, the white flag of the Islamic Emirate was raised [00:17:41] throughout the country. Officials at the Kabul Security Command [00:17:45] say that this morning, armed robbers entered a house [00:17:49] in the 18th security district of Kabul City with the intention of theft.

[00:18:00] As a result of this clash, four armed robbers were killed at the scene, [00:18:03] and two pistols were seized from them.
