ATALANTA (Pajhwok): Hezb-i-Islami Afghanistan leader Gulbuddin Hekmatyar has asked his followers to be ready for another war and campaign, in apparent reference to Daesh or Islamic State.
In his Friday’s sermon, Hekmayar said since signing a peace agreement with the previous government, he had been performing only dawat (invitation), cultural and political works.
“We have always called for intra-Afghan talks and have presented peace plans, but received no response to our demands, there was attack on us. We have to decide on our own and protect the masses from mercenaries and evil people.”
