A week after the deadly suicide attack in Kabul, Rahe Danishgah Educational Center has shut down its operations due to security threats. Yousuf Dehzad, director of Rahe Danishgah Educational Center confirmed to Afghanistan International that they will no longer operate in Kabul.
According to Dehzad, during the five years of operations at Rahe Danishgah, they have witnessed several attacks on educational institutes in Kabul.
He mentioned the deadly attacks on Mawud Educational Center; Kawsar-e-Danesh Center; Seyyed al-Shuhada High School, and Kaaj Educational School, which killed and injured hundreds of young Hazara Shia teenagers.
Dehzad added that with each passing day, the number of students participating at these centers has decreased due to security threats and because the atmosphere of fear and intimidation has been increasing.
