Zabiullah Mujahid, deputy minister of information and culture, said that the Islamic Emirate would prevent the smuggling of pine nuts from Afghanistan.
“The Islamic Emirate is responsible for preventing the smuggling of pine nuts and for facilitating factories to process pine nuts in Paktia and neighboring provinces,” Tolo News quoted him as saying.
