Abdullah Gan
Mountainous region of Afghanistan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Abdullah Gan, is a mountainous region of Afghanistan. The population there are primarily members of the Shia Muslim Hazara ethnic group. They were particularly obstinate in their opposition to the hard-line Sunni Taliban regime.
Throughout the war, the Taliban laid siege to Abdullah Gan, refusing to allow any aid through.[1][2] Villagers caught trying to bring food up from Zari were beaten.[citation needed]
