Afghan People Stage Anti-Government Rally (+Photos)

KABUL (Tasnim) – Thousands of Afghan people staged a protest rally in the northern city of Mazar-i-Sharif to express their support for a newly established anti-government alliance between three ethnic minority political parties, namely “the Coalition for the Salvation of Afghanistan”.

In the demonstration held in Mazar-i-Sharif on Tuesday, the protestors chanted slogans against the national unity government, according to Tasnim dispatches.

The demonstrators also announced their support for the Coalition for the Salvation of Afghanistan.

Last month, the leaders of Afghanistan's three major ethnic minority political parties, all of whom hold senior positions in the government, announced from Turkey that they have formed a coalition to save Afghanistan from chaos.

The group, calling itself the Coalition for the Salvation of Afghanistan, also issued a list of demands for reforms by President Ashraf Ghani and vowed to hold mass protests unless they are met.

The stunning development followed weeks of gathering political turmoil and public unrest after a devastating terrorist bombing in the capital on May 31.
