**Celebrating Afghanistan’s Independence Day – 19 August 2025**
Today, as the sun rises over the majestic mountains and vibrant valleys of Afghanistan, we come together to honor a historic moment—the day Afghanistan reclaimed its sovereignty and stood tall as a free nation. On this **106th Independence Day**, we pay tribute to the courage, resilience, and unwavering spirit of the Afghan people who have defended their land, culture, and identity for generations.
**August 19, 1919**, marks the triumph of a nation that refused to bow to foreign domination. The Treaty of Rawalpindi not only ended British control but also ignited a flame of pride that continues to burn in the hearts of Afghans across the world. From the valiant struggles of our ancestors to the enduring strength of today’s generation, Afghanistan’s story is one of perseverance, unity, and hope.
As we raise our flag—black, red, and green—we remember the sacrifices of those who fought for freedom. We honor the poets who preserved our language, the mothers who nurtured our future, the farmers who sustained our land, and the youth who dream of a brighter tomorrow.
This Independence Day is not just a reflection on the past but a call to action for the future. Let us stand together in solidarity, embracing peace, progress, and prosperity. May Afghanistan flourish with education, innovation, and unity, becoming a beacon of hope for generations to come.
**زنده باد افغانستان!**
**Long Live Afghanistan!**
*Happy 106th Independence Day!*
