KABUL: Amid fear and panic following the Afghan Taliban’s capture over Kabul, Afghan cricketer Rashid Khan is praying for peace in the war-torn country.
Rashid Khan, the only Afghan cricketer so far to have shared his thoughts on the fast-evolving situation, requested for “peace” in a post on Twitter.
Last week, he pleaded world leaders not to leave his country in chaos.
In an impassioned plea, Rashid Khan had said thousands of women and children are being killed on a daily basis in Afghanistan.
“Dear world leaders! My country is in chaos, thousands of innocent people, including children & women, get martyred every day, houses and properties being destroyed. Thousands of families displaced,” he had added.
“Don’t leave us in chaos. Stop killing Afghans and destroying Afghanistan. We want peace.”
