Ethnic Pashtun Farmers Continue Traditional Ways In Midst Of War

WALAKHAN, KANDAHAR PROVINCE - JUNE 03: A Pashtun girl stands outside her family home June 3, 2010 in Walakhan, a village south of Kandahar, Afghanistan. Tiny Walakhan, which has perhaps 300 ethnic Pashtuns, is typical of many agrarian hamlets in the Pashtun belt in southern Afghanistan, where traditional farmers grow crops and raise families in ways they have for centuries. Walakhan and surrounding Dand province lie on crucial access routes to nearby Kandahar, and American soliders have occupied a forward operating base nearby to keep order in the restive region ahead of a push to place Kandahar under full Afghan government control.
