<p>The security situation in Afghanistan remains challenging. Foreign and Commonwealth
Office travel advice already advises against all travel to Jowzjan Province.</p><p>We
commend the resilience of the Afghan National Defence and Security Forces (ANDSF)
over recent weeks in combating a series of determined insurgent assaults. The Taliban
continue to expand their influence in some rural areas and threaten some provincial
capitals. However, with US assistance, ANDSF forces have repelled assaults on significant
population centres.</p>
