Authorities in Afghanistan's southern Kandahar province have been working on the reconstruction of bridges and roads that had been damaged during the war over the past two decades, a local official has said.

A total of 53 bridges and culverts out of 103 have been reconstructed while the rest are still being rebuilt, according to the provincial head of public work Mullah Nematullah Saraji.

The official noted that reconstruction work of roads connecting the city of Kandahar with Spin Boldak and Shorabak districts is ongoing and will be completed in the near future.

Health clinics and schools damaged during the war in the past two decades will also be rebuilt in parts of the Kandahar province, the official added.
