As the level of violence remains high in the country despite occasional efforts to jumpstart the stalled peace process, details provided by a security official who wished not to be named indicate that 119 people, including 102 security force members, were killed in clashes and security incidents in just two days--June 3 and 4. 

Analysts say this shows the gravity of the intensifying conflict. The Defense Ministry reports clashes in at least 10 provinces daily on average. 

The Afghanistan Human Rights Commission, relying on its assessments about some recent terrorist attacks in Kabul, says that the Hazara community in Afghanistan are prone to “genocide,” reiterating that such targeted killings require comprehensive and deep investigation by an international team that should be picked by the UN.

Since mid-May, at least five attacks have been conducted in Kabul in which majority of the victims were from the Hazara community, including the attack on Sayed al-Shuhada High School in west of Kabul that killed over 90 people, almost all of them students, two blasts that targeted city buses in west of Kabul on Tuesday and two explosions in the west of Kabul on Thursday that targeted a corolla vehicle and a minivan, killing nine civilians, all from the same community.
