There has been extensive use of napalm and high explosives against nonmilitary targets. Oftentimes. the Soviets will opt for maiming rather than killng innocent Afghan women and children to increase their suffering and burden on the rest of the population. The use of land mines is widespread and the dropping of bombs designed to look like toys means that young children are deliberate targets. Those Afghans who have stayed or have become internal refugees in the Soviet controlled cities are subject to indiscriminate arrest and torture. The Soviet and puppet Afghan jails have absolutely no concept of even rudimentary human rights. Violent torture is common and executions routine.
