Afghanistan's History of War on Display

The World

Afghanistan’s long history as a battleground is documented in a small museum on the outskirts of Kabul. It displays the range of weapons that successive armed groups have employed – at a deadly cost – and that continue to take lives today. The World’s Laura Lynch visited the museum.

*The broadcast of this report incorrectly cites 40 people that are estimated to be killed or injured each day in Afghanistan. The figure is actually per month. We regret the error.
