deaths
The Green Party has expressed their
sadness at the loss of lives of two soldiers and injury of
six New Zealand Defence Force personal
overnight.
“I want to extend our heartfelt
sympathies and our aroha to the friends and families of the
soldiers who have lost their lives in service to their
country,” said Green Party Co-leader Metiria
Turei.
“Our thoughts are also with the families
of the six injured personal, we hope that they will recover
fully.
“Losing loved ones is always devastating,
but it is especially so when they chose to selflessly work
on the other side of the world in a community that has been
devastated by war and terror.
“The provincial
reconstruction team is supporting and working with
communities in Afghanistan to rebuild and to reconstruct
their homes and communities, and ultimately their
lives.
“The Green Party extends our very
sincerest sympathy to the family, friends, colleagues and
communities of the two soldiers that have lost their
lives,” said Mrs
Turei.
