About 700 Afghan youth including 141 girls after completion of a one-year training course in Kabul Military Training Center graduated Tuesday and commissioned to the national army.
"All the newly 700 graduated officers after receiving their certificate today will be deployed elsewhere in the country to defend motherland," General Qadam Shah Shahim, the Afghan Chief of Army Staff, said in his address at a ceremony.
He said that the Taliban and other armed militant groups will not be able to disrupt security, saying all the insurgent outfits are deemed to defeat.
