The Peace March, which began after a suicide car bomb tore through a crowd leaving a wrestling match in Helmand Province back in March, arrived in the Afghan capital yesterday after a month-long 550km journey. At first they began with a sit-in near the site of the bombing, but on May 13 they began walking toward Kabul. Among them when they left Helmand was a a polio sufferer on crutches. By the time they reached Kabul they’d been joined by a completely blind man and dozens more, fed up with living through never-ending war. Walking beneath the wing of the aircraft-turned-restaurant only a kilometre from the centre of the city must have made the experience all the more confounding for those of the marchers who’d never left southern Afghanistan before. #Kabul, #Afghanistan.
