KABUL, Afghanistan – The ISAF strongly condemns the murders of eight Afghan workers on their way to work in Logar province July 18. The Taliban forced the workers from their vehicle, then executed them.
"This senseless and brutal killing of eight innocent men is unconscionable and barbaric. They were simply on the way to work to provide for their families," said Gen. Joseph F. Dunford, the ISAF commander. "I want to express my deepest sympathies to the families of the men who were brutally murdered. ISAF remains committed to bringing peace and stability to Afghanistan. The oppression, fear, murder, and intimidation campaign of the Taliban has no place in Afghanistan's future."
