He added that they would not allow anyone to harm the nation&#8217;s security.<\/p>\n<p>These remarks were made in the presence of Khalid Faisal Haqqani, acting Interior Minister, several ministry officials, foreign ambassadors, and military commanders during the eighth batch graduation of the six-month commando training course. Mujahid addressed the commanders, saying that serving the people must be done with the intention of seeking God\u2019s satisfaction, as God will reward them both in this world and the hereafter.<\/p>\n<p>At the same ceremony, Khalid Faisal Haqqani stated that after half a century of having an independent military force, Afghanistan now possesses an organized army and security forces who, despite material weaknesses, are stronger in spirit and faith than others. He emphasized that these forces are not a threat to others but are defenders of their homeland.<\/p>\n<p>During the graduation ceremony, the newly graduated commanders demonstrated coordinated military exercises in cooperation with the air force, utilizing a variety of unmanned aerial vehicles (drones).<\/p>\n<p>These statements come amid broad concerns regarding the Taliban administration\u2019s claims of complete security and the absence of destructive groups in Afghanistan. Many remain uncertain about the actual security situation across various parts of the country and are worried about the restrictions and implications of the Taliban\u2019s decisions on society\u2019s security and freedoms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Taliban&#8217;s acting defense minister claims Afghanistan&#8217;s security is managed by special forces under a unified government with no harmful groups active.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":25824,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17,5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-25825","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-important-news","category-security-incidents"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25825","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25825"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25825\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25824"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25825"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25825"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25825"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
