Scope and Content

A propaganda leaflet showing the destruction of a building, in the foreground, civilians and children are standing in the middle of armed conflict. This leaflet was possibly trying to illustrate the risk of staying outside during a military operation. These leaflets were typically dropped by aircraft over a targeted area before a military operation. The leaflets were generally written in Pashto, Dari and English. In this case, the leaflet does not have any written message since, according to the statistics of 2011, 68% of the population aged above 15 could not read.
