Released on September 20th, 2024, via Cold Spring Records, ‘Many Things Afflict Us Few Things Console Us' is the 5th album from Birmingham-based industrial/doom metal band Khost. An album that sees the band entering new nightmarish territories, alongside their signature walls of detuned guitar, corroded percussion and VHS atmospherics. With inspiration for many of the tracks coming from countless live shows and even soundcheck experiments, it's safe to say that this is Khost at their most creative. Showcasing extreme evolved electronics blended with punk and industrial tempos. The album features several collaborations too, including Axebreaker (aka Terence Hannum of Locrian), acclaimed cellist Jo Quail, and Berlin-based sound designer Manuel Liebeskind. We spoke to Damian & Andy of Khost about the new album and dive into their sonic experimentation on this record. Reflecting on the positives and the negatives of the creative period, what drove them to try new things, and how comfortable they creating discomforting music. We also speak about connecting to different crowds, wanting to showcase their music, and this particular album, off in a live environment, and so much more.

They worked daily with Afghan cabinet members across all parts of the government for the first year of the interim government and got to know all of them intimately. MG Eikenberry was tasked with implementing the international Security Sector Reform program in Afghanistan, and as Chief OMC-A creating the Afghan National Army and MOD from scratch. Their typical daily interactions included the leaders of UNAMA, NATO-Nation Embassies, ISAF, the 3-star US Forces Commander, CENTCOM, OSD, the Joint Staff, the Intelligence Community, regional ambassadors, the Special Forces leaders training the ANA, and the US Ambassador.

He also wrote a directed study on the creation of the Afghan Military and the US Security Sector Reform efforts that was published as a monograph by the US Army War College in 2009 with a foreword by GEN McChrystal. That study was completed after many interviews with LTG Karl Eikenberry who was then assigned to NATO, just prior to his selection as Ambassador to Afghanistan.From 2008-2009 Jason attended Arabic language training at DLI until the day LTG McChrystal was nominated by President Obama to command ISAF.

Within hours of the Senate confirmation, they flew to Brussels to meet with NATO leaders and then onwards to Kabul Afghanistan. In Kabul Jason helped GEN McChrystal form trusting relationships with the same Afghan leaders Jason worked closely with when they first formed the government in 2002.For the next 2 months Jason traveled with GEN McChrystal to over half the provinces to listen to NATO and Afghan forces, and Afghan leaders to better understand the war. Jason assisted COMISAF during the strategic review of the U.S. and NATO Afghanistan policy, often quietly liaising between GEN McChrystal and Ambassador Eikenberry, his new and old bosses.After the strategic review was sent to CENTCOM Jason was selected to initiate and design the NATO interagency team focused on reintegration — i.e., how former insurgents could rejoin society.

Depuis des mois, aux attaques terroristes sur son sol, le Pakistan répond en menant des opérations du côté afghan de la frontière. Dernière en date : deux bombardements pakistanais sur les régions de Khost et Paktika dans les zones tribales de l'est de l'Afghanistan. Elles ont fait huit morts dimanche (17 mars 2024), selon les talibans. Depuis des mois, Islamabad reproche à Kaboul de protéger des groupes djihadistes. Et pourtant, à leur retour au pouvoir en août 2021, les talibans l'assuraient : ils seraient les promoteurs d'un ordre régional apaisé. Deux ans et demi plus tard, les relations entre le gouvernement taliban de Kaboul et Islamabad sont plus que jamais tendues. Jusqu'où peut aller leur confrontation ? Avec notre invité : Jean-Yves Berthault, ancien diplomate en Afghanistan et au Pakistan et auteur de «Déjeuners avec les talibans» (2021, Éditions Saint-Simon).

In this episode, we catch up with Afghan refugees to hear about life after evacuation. How is the fall of Kabul still impacting them? Who do they feel is responsible for the Taliban takeover? What could have been done differently? You'll hear how many Afghans feel abandoned as the world's attention moves to Ukraine and the ensuing refugee crisis in Europe. Famine grips Afghanistan and the Taliban's harsh reign faces little international scrutiny. But Afghans continue to fight: for their freedom, for the truth to be heard and for accountability from those who let them fall.

In this episode, we catch up with Afghan refugees to hear about life after evacuation. How is the fall of Kabul still impacting them? Who do they feel is responsible for the Taliban takeover? What could have been done differently? You'll hear how many Afghans feel abandoned as the world's attention moves to Ukraine and the ensuing refugee crisis in Europe. Famine grips Afghanistan and the Taliban's harsh reign faces little international scrutiny. But Afghans continue to fight: for their freedom, for the truth to be heard and for accountability from those who let them fall. We want to hear from you.

For a transcript of this episode and additional material, visit: https://www.kabulfalling.com Correction: In this episode, we stated that an earthquake hit the provinces of Paktia and Khost in Afghanistan in June. This is an error. The earthquake occurred in the provinces of Paktika and Khost.
When a massive earthquake hit remote communities in Afghanistan's Khost and Paktika provinces on 21 June, UN Children's Fund staffer Veronica Houser knew it was going to be a tough assignment. So many families had been buried in rubble and mud while they slept. To highlight the work of aid workers for this year's World Humanitarian Day, here's her first-hand account of the relief effort.

L'apertura di giornata, con le notizie e le voci dei protagonisti. L'Afghanistan è nuovamente in ginocchio, in preda all'emergenza scatenata da un potente terremoto che, secondo l'ultimo bilancio, ha provocato almeno 1.000 morti e 1.500 feriti. La zona più colpita dal sisma è la parte orientale del Paese, in particolare le province di Paktika e Khost. Ne parliamo con Stefano Sozza, Country Director di Emergency in Afghanistan.
Farooq Jan Mangal, reporter in Khost city, close to where an earthquake shook Afghanistan, discusses the situation on the ground.
Hơn 1.000 người được xác nhận là đã chết và khoảng 1,500 người bị thương trong trận động đất mạnh 6,1 độ Richter xảy ra gần Khost thuộc tỉnh Paktika. Nhiều người dân Afghanistan đang rơi vào đường cùng.
People are digging through rubble with their bare hands in a desperate search for survivors, following the devastating earthquake which has killed at least 1,000 people in Khost, in the country's east. The disaster inflicts more misery on a country where millions are already experiencing hunger and poverty with the health system under enormous strain since the Taliban retook power.
More than 1,000 are confirmed dead and about 1500 are reportedly injured in the 6.1 magnitude quake which struck near Khost in Paktika province.
Afghanistan's Taliban rulers say many hundreds of people have been killed by an earthquake near the southern city of Khost. Also in the programme: the Saudi crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman, is visiting Turkey for the first time since the journalist Jamal Khashoggi was murdered in the kingdom's consulate in Istanbul; plus, Victoria becomes the first Australian state to ban the display of the swastika, following an increase in anti-Semitic incidents.

*) East Ukraine weathers bombardment Russian attacks have laid down a curtain of fire across areas of eastern Ukraine where pockets of resistance are denying Moscow full military control of the region. The governor of Ukraine's eastern Luhansk region described the situation saying “everything that can burn is on fire.” The Russian military currently controls about 95 percent of the Luhansk region, but Moscow has struggled for weeks to overrun it completely. *) East Afghanistan earthquake A magnitude 6.1 earthquake has shaken parts of densely populated Afghanistan. The country's state-run news agency reported that at least 255 people have been killed in the east. The quake struck about 44 kilometres from the city of Khost in eastern Afghanistan at a depth of 51 kilometres. *) Saudi crown prince to meet President Erdogan Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is visiting Türkiye for talks with President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to further strengthen ties between the regional powers. Erdogan has told reporters that Crown Prince bin Salman's visit to the capital Ankara would see discussions on taking bilateral relations to a much higher level. Energy, economy, trade, defence cooperation and tourism are expected to be at the top of the agenda and new agreements are also expected to be signed. Relations between Ankara and Riyadh had seen a drop in recent years due to political tensions, but both countries are now seeking to revive ties. *) US landmark gun safety bill US Senate negotiators on gun legislation have released a landmark gun safety bill to address mass shootings. The 80-page bill will be encouraging state red flag laws, enhancing mental health services, and adding juvenile records to background checks on gun buyers. The measure does not go as far as Democrats including President Joe Biden had sought. But, if passed, it would still be the most significant action to combat gun violence to emerge from the US Congress in years. And finally… *) Conflicts push millions of children out of school The number of children forced out of school or who have seen their education disrupted in conflict-torn countries has nearly tripled in six years to 222 million. That is up from 75 million children estimated to be in the same situation in 2016, the United Nations global fund for education found in a fresh report. A full 78.2 million of the children are estimated to be completely out of school due to often protracted conflicts and emergencies. 54 percent of them are girls, while 17 percent are children with disabilities, the report found.
