Karzai Blames Pakistan for Series of Attacks

HeadlineJul 15, 2008

Afghan President Hamid Karzai has directly accused Pakistan’s intelligence agency of being behind a recent series of attacks that have killed scores of people, including the bombing outside the Indian embassy in Kabul that killed nearly sixty.

Hamid Karzai: “Now we know who martyred our two sisters, we know who martyred the people of Deh Rawod, and we know who martyred the people in Kabul. Now this has become clear. And we have told the government of Pakistan that the killings of people in Afghanistan, the destruction of bridges in Afghanistan, are carried out by Pakistan’s intelligence and Pakistan’s military departments.”
