Bundeswehr leaves Afghanistan
Previously, the portal businessinsider.com he reported that when withdrawing its troops from Afghanistan, Germany was faced with an unforeseen problem — excess alcoholic beverages. Previously, German military personnel were allowed to consume two cans of beer or their equivalent daily. A recent ban by the German commander in Afghanistan on alcohol consumption for security reasons has led to a buildup of beer, wine and cocktail drinks in warehouses. The Bundeswehr said that 22,600 liters of alcohol, including nearly 60,000 cans of beer, cannot be sold in Afghanistan due to local religious restrictions, as well as destroyed for environmental reasons. To solve the problem, a civilian contractor was hired, who agreed to take the alcohol out of Afghanistan, and cover their costs by selling it.
