As efforts and hopes get momentum on an enduring peace in Afghanistan, another peace convoy started their journey to Kabul in an attempt to join Helmand activists in the city. 
 
Their journey started on Monday. The Kunar convoy is accompanied by dozens of youths and civil society activists.
 
The purpose of this civil move is to support Helmand peace convoy that has already arrived in Kabul, a peace activist from Kunar said. 
 
A group of Afghan migrants from Pakistan has also arrived in Kabul this week.
 
This come after members of the Helmand Peace Convoy on Monday said that the response demonstrated by the UN about ending the war and violence in Afghanistan was not sufficient, and called on the international body to take decisive steps to towards ending the bloody conflict in the war-hit nation.
 
This comes a day after members of the Helmand Peace Convoy marched through the streets of Kabul as they made their way to the United Nations Assistance Mission for Afghanistan (UNAMA) compound in PD10 in Shar-e-Naw for a sit-in protest.
 
The Peace Movement’s leader Iqbal Khyber said that if the UN shows a serious commitment towards Afghanistan, peace and security will be restored in the near future in the country.
  
But the Taliban said in a statement it sees the Helmand peace march as a conspiracy which has been fabricated by the United States and implemented by the High Peace Council (HPC).
  
The Helmand peace convoy on Monday embarked on the next phase of their protest and will hold a three-day sit in outside UNAMA offices.
 
Initially they launched a sit-in protest in Lashkargah city after a suicide bombing outside a stadium. About a month later, a group of eight protestors left Helmand on foot for Kabul, all the while spreading messages of peace.
 
The convoy’s spokesman Bismillah Watandost said on Sunday: “We will spend three days in front of each embassy. During these three days, we will try to launch demonstrations in those countries that we are protesting against. By holding our demonstrations, we want to create a relationship between our people and the citizens of those countries; and we hope the citizens of the foreign countries ask their governments why Afghans are protesting outside their embassies,” Watandost said.
 
The activists, whose ages range from 17 to 65, come from all walks of life and include students, athletes and farmers among others.
