Afghan military
The Afghan military is the national armed forces of Afghanistan, comprising the Afghan National Army and police responsible for defending the country, maintaining security, and supporting government stability. Trained and supported by international partners, its structure includes infantry, special forces, and logistical units. Over the years, its capabilities have varied due to political changes, external aid, and internal challenges such as corruption and resource constraints. The military plays a crucial role in Afghanistan's security landscape, but its effectiveness has been impacted by factors including insurgent threats and shifts in government control.
