Members of the High Peace Council (HPC) Thursday called for a swift end to the ongoing war and violence in Afghanistan, saying the Afghan people were tired of conflict.
They said restoration of peace and stability was among the topmost priorities of the HPC.
“Today, the people of Afghanistan are in dire need of peace and an end to war,” the HPC deputy chief Mohammad Karim Khalili said addressing a ceremony paying tribute to the late HPC chairman Sayed Ahmad Gailani.
