About me / Bio:
Mirwais Jalil was an Afghan journalist who played a crucial role in the BBC's coverage of the Afghanistan civil war. Born in Kabul to a medical practitioner, he became fluent in Persian and Pashto. After moving to Pakistan post-high school, he took English classes and began freelance reporting, which led to his position with the BBC. His authoritative reporting on the front lines made him a valued journalist. Tragically, at the age of 25, he was kidnapped and murdered after an interview with the prime minister. His death underscored the perils journalists face in conflict zones.
