Local sources in Kunduz province say that the United Nations Children&s Fund (UNICEF) has provided education for more than five thousand
children in this province.Ahmad Shah Haqqani, the head of labor and social affairs for Kunduz, said that after the fall of the former
government, UNICEF, in cooperation with the local government, facilitated elementary school education for more than 5,000 children in
war-affected and displaced areas, adding that these education centres teach children who have mental illnesses or disabilities due to
war.Since the Islamic Emirate takeover, we have provided education classrooms for 5260 children in the capital and some other war-affected
districts of this province,& said Ahmad Shah.The teachers said that they pay more attention to disabled students.We teach in a place where
students have bad memories from war and their minds have not been good; when they first came here, they had depression,& said Lima Mohammad,
a teacher.When this friendly education was established for these children, they are now mentally good.These children meanwhile have called
on government and international organisations to pay more attention to their education situations.We are happy that we continue our
education here, here we have toys and play tools,& said Omar, a student.Meanwhile, thousands of children were previously prevented from
attending school in Kunduz province due to continuous insecurity, now that security has been established, hundreds of children still cannot
