He shared his message on Facebook along with a photo of himself and Central Forces Commander Hasib, taken in the Hindu Kush mountains, extending Eid greetings: “As we approach Eid al-Adha, those who deny our people their fundamental rights have also robbed them of the chance to celebrate Eid joyously. While praying for our compatriots’ prayers and devotions to be accepted, we pledge once more to strive with divine assistance and popular support to realize their legitimate and humane aspirations. We will persist in our struggle to dispel the oppressive shadow of Taliban rule and to establish justice and freedom, even at the risk of our lives. Eid Mubarak!”
